Platform capabilities

The governed execution layer
for AI agents.

Intent, policy, execution — Formael handles the three-phase lifecycle of every outbound agent action. One protocol, any external system, zero credential exposure.

Intake

Normalize semantic intent into a governed transaction

Governance

4-axis policy evaluation — every action, every time

Execution

Credential-safe adapter execution with full trace

Capabilities

Infrastructure for the
agentic enterprise.

Beyond simple routing — a comprehensive control plane for connectivity, governance, metering, and observability.

Dynamic Policy Engine

Multi-dimensional governance across four independent axes — Identity, Semantic, Fiscal, and Risk. Every action evaluated before it touches an external system.

Immutable Audit Ledger

Every intent, policy evaluation, and execution payload written to an append-only ledger. Full traceability — not just what happened, but why it was approved.

Universal Adapters

Agents target semantic Capability Contracts, not provider implementations. Swap DocuSign for another e-sign provider without touching a single line of agent code.

Human-in-the-Loop

High-risk actions automatically pause for human approval. Async approval workflows that don't block the agent's reasoning loop — fully configurable per policy axis.

Budget & Cost Control

Define daily API budgets, per-agent cost limits, and rate thresholds. Policy engine automatically denies actions that would exceed your configured fiscal guardrails.

Intent-Native API

One unified API surface regardless of target system. Agents submit natural intent envelopes — Formael handles schema translation, authentication, and error normalization.

The platform

Three phases.
One protocol.

The Intent Execution Cycle (IEC) is the atomic unit of every Formael transaction. Every agent action is an IEC.

01

Agentic Intent Submission

Agents speak intent. Not endpoints.

Instead of forcing your AI agent to understand strict API schemas, credential flows, or endpoint URLs, the agent communicates semantic intent to Formael. A natural, structured description of what it needs to accomplish.

Your agent code never changes when you switch providers.

Agent sends

"Create a mutual NDA for John Doe at Acme Corp using the standard template."

No API knowledge required from agent
02

Dynamic Policy Evaluation

Every action evaluated before it leaves.

Before any action reaches an external system, the platform intercepts and evaluates it against your organization's governance policies across four independent axes. No bypasses. No exceptions.

High-risk actions pause automatically for human review.

Identity

Who is this agent? What is it authorized to do?

Semantic

Is this intent within the defined capability scope?

Fiscal

Does this action exceed budget limits or rate thresholds?

Risk

Does this require human approval before proceeding?

03

Abstracted Execution

One protocol. Any external system.

Once an action clears policy evaluation, Formael resolves the appropriate adapter, injects credentials from the secure vault, and executes against the external system. Every outcome is recorded to the immutable ledger.

Full trace ID, outcome envelope, and audit record — on every execution.

Supported adapters

DocuSignJiraSlackSalesforceGitHubCustom

REST APIs, webhooks, CLIs, SDKs, and agent-to-agent protocols.

Observability

See every action.
Explain every decision.

Dual-trace observability on every IEC. The ledger records not just what happened, but the full reasoning chain that led to it.

“If something goes wrong, trace the exact chain of logic and data that led to the event — down to the policy axiom that approved it.”
