Use cases / Customer support
Let support agents resolve more without giving them unlimited authority.
Give support agents room to complete routine work while holding account, identity, and financial actions to a clear policy.

Why Aethis
A boundary that understands the proposed action.
Context before consequence
Evaluate a refund differently from a recovery-email change, even when the same support agent proposes both.
Focused human judgment
Hold only the sensitive action and give the reviewer the exact request that needs a decision.
Evidence from request to outcome
Keep the policy decision, review, execution attempt, and reported result in one Action Record.
The opportunity
Support is moving from answers to action.
An agent can find an order, change a plan, or propose a refund. Give it room to help, with a boundary around the actions that carry consequences.
Refunds and credits
Keep small concessions moving and put larger ones in front of a person.
Account recovery
Give identity-changing actions a stronger boundary.
Subscription changes
Separate routine plan maintenance from actions with commercial impact.
Customer data access
Make useful retrieval possible without opening broad export authority.
How it works
The agent proposes. Aethis decides. The tool runs.
Every support action takes the same governed path, so routine requests stay fast and consequential ones wait for a person.
Proposes the support action
The agent calls a tool exposed by its connected remote MCP server.
Evaluates context and policy
Observe records the decision. Enforce can allow, hold for approval, or block.
Runs on the governed path
For a held request, Approve Once authorizes the exact reviewed action; the agent then continues execution.
Inside Aethis
The reviewer gets the whole picture.
a refund is held with its amount, reason, and exact proposed action visible to the reviewer.
