Decision

Needs approval → approver

A denial at any layer stops the payment. A team rule can tighten a company rule, and an agent rule can tighten both, but neither can loosen them.

Who sets what

Owners and admins write the rules. Team managers can tighten their team's rules but not loosen them. Agents can't change any of them.

Company-wide policies

Company rules apply to every agent automatically. Agents can't remove them, and only owners and admins can edit them.

Limits for each agent

Set per-payment and period limits, approved suppliers, allowed categories, and spending hours for each agent.

Approvals and hard limits

Above the approval amount, a request waits for someone you choose, such as the agent's owner. Above a hard limit or to a blocked supplier, it's denied, and approval can't override that.

Budget requests

An agent can ask for a budget for a specific task and say what it's for. A person approves an amount, and the agent stops there. Its other limits still apply.

Versioned policy changes

Every policy change saves a numbered version. Compare any two or restore an earlier one.

Checks in the payment path

On managed wallets and connected cards, Conto releases the signature or card details only after a request passes. If you use your own signer, x402, or MPP, your code asks Conto first and follows the answer.
