Agent and automation

Prepare planning work while keeping decisions attributable.

Use Proto to prepare forecasts, compare scenarios and assemble budget review packs from the records your team is authorized to use.

Teaching an agent

Read the platform entrypoint before configuring agent access. Give each assistant an identifiable acting user, the correct role and access to the entities it supports.

What it cannot do alone

An agent cannot invent board authorization, approve its own transfer, alter locked history or publish a partly reconciled ledger import. Suggested assumptions remain proposals until the appropriate workflow accepts them. A generated PDF is distinct from a CFO-approved packet.
