Agents prepare, people decide: how human sign-off works across our products

AI agents in regulated work need a gate, an owner and a record. Here is the pattern all three Innovation Consult products follow.

An AI agent that drafts, calculates or proposes a change can save hours. In regulated work it can also create liability in seconds. Every Innovation Consult product therefore follows the same pattern: agents prepare, a named person decides, and the system keeps a record.

Three questions every agent must answer

  1. Was the output checked before it could be used? In Legal-OS, every citation is checked and comes back safe, escalated or blocked. In Election Campaign OS, funding totals are computed by rules, not guessed by a model. In ICPMO, an agent's proposed change passes a confidence gate the portfolio office sets.
  2. Who approved it? An attorney files the pleading. A finance or compliance officer reviews a funding alert. A portfolio analyst approves a budget change. The agent never submits, files or lodges on anyone's behalf.
  3. Where is the record? Each decision leaves an audit entry: what was proposed, what was checked, and who approved it.
