Decision Agents: cutting approval cycle time without removing human oversight

A manager approving a purchase request usually checks the same things: is it within budget, is the vendor approved, does it match policy. That is pattern-matching, not judgement.

A Decision Agent runs those checks the moment the request is submitted, attaches the evidence, and either auto-clears the routine cases or routes the genuine exceptions to a human with a clear recommendation.

The result our customers see is a shorter cycle time on the 80% of routine requests, and more attention on the 20% that actually need a person. The human still owns the final call on anything material.
