What is AI agent governance ?

It's enterprise controls for AI agents—authority checks, policy enforcement, risk scoring—so they don't torch your budget like unchecked employees.

Why treat AI agents like economic actors?

Because they commit real money, data, actions. Chatbot safety ignores org rules like spending caps or approved vendors.

How does AgentCTRL fix AI agent risks?

Five-stage pipeline vets every action: autonomy, policies, delegation, risk, conflicts. Framework-agnostic Python lib, battle-tested from human systems.
