Governance that lets AI into the critical path

Approval thresholds, provenance, SHA-256 hashes and configurable retention are what make AI acceptable.

Governance

Key takeaways

  • No agent approves its own action.
  • Every logged interaction carries an integrity hash.
  • Risk class and human oversight are configuration, not policy documents.

Authority is data

Each role has an approval limit, each action a threshold, each Worker App a list of authorized users with geography, category and read/write limits.

Above the threshold the decision routes to a second approver; the agent cannot bypass it.

Integrity and retention

Interactions are logged with an SHA-256 compliance hash; encrypted content storage is opt-in and retention is configurable per company.

That combination lets legal teams answer what was kept, for how long, and whether it was altered.

EU AI Act in practice

Use cases are classified by risk, high-risk ones require documented human oversight, and each model carries its provenance.

Configuration changes are logged as Change Requests, so an audit reads the history, not a slide deck.
