## Proof Points

- **Best for:** Delivery, payroll, fintech transfers
- **Controls:** Caps, velocity, approval
- **Outcome:** Fast settlement with hard stops

## Workflow

### 1. The agent proposes a payout

A dispatch, payroll, or funds-movement workflow drafts the payment as soon as the business event is complete.

### 2. Conto evaluates the payout in-line

Conto checks each payout against your per-recipient caps, velocity limits, and regional rules before letting it settle.

### 3. Routine payouts clear automatically

Trusted recipients and standard amounts move right away. Unusual payouts stop long enough for a human decision.

## Controls

### Recipient-level limits

Prevent oversize payouts to a single worker, driver, or wallet destination without slowing down the long tail of normal payments.

### Velocity rules

Catch retry storms, duplicated workflows, or abuse patterns before they turn into many small losses.

### Approval thresholds

Hold payouts above a certain amount for sign-off while still letting approved low-value disbursements move in seconds.

### Regional and category policy

Make sure autonomous payouts only go to approved geographies and approved types of disbursement.

## Outcomes

- Fast settlement becomes an operating advantage instead of a risk tradeoff.
- Finance teams review only the payouts that actually need judgment.
- Ops teams can explain every delay or block with a concrete policy result.
