Use cases
Wherever AI holds real authority, Sentinel belongs
Finance, procurement, internal tools: wherever the need is, Sentinel is there.
| Industry / scenario | Agent authority | Typical risk | Sentinel value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Finance | Payments, reimbursement, credit, trade recommendations | Fraud, incorrect payment, sensitive data leakage | Pre-launch verification + real-time interception of high-risk transactions |
| Enterprise operations | Email, CRM, HR, internal knowledge base | Privilege escalation, privacy leakage, incorrect external sends | Permission boundary verification + real-time behavior checks |
| Software & IT | Code repositories, cloud resources, ops tooling | Supply-chain attacks, privilege escalation, destructive operations | Tool-call verification + human escalation for critical operations |
| Manufacturing / robotics | Equipment control, procurement, scheduling, physical actions | Production disruption, mis-control, physical safety | Scenario-specific acceptance testing + real-time safety boundaries |
Where the stakes are highest
Built for high-authority agents
Finance and procurement agents move money. Internal-tool agents touch code, CRM, and infrastructure. Both carry real authority, and both need safety evidence independent of the agent vendor.
Finance & procurement agents
Payments, credit decisions, trade recommendations: high-stakes actions where a single mistake is expensive.
Internal-tool workflow agents
Agents with code, CRM, HR or infrastructure access, where a single over-permissioned action can cause outsized damage.
