Neuro-symbolic AI, in plain words.
- Neuro
- An AI model reads your documents and drafts the payment or the answer.
- Symbolic
- Written rules check that draft against your records. Rules do not guess.
When a rule fails, it names the rule and the record, and a person decides. Turn the AI off and the rules still hold a bad payment.
A supervisor and a team, then a person.
Ingestor. Reads the snapshot and counts records by kind.
The charter policy point still allows or denies every action. Wired in src/augustine_agent/compliance/team/graph.py.
Money already lost, and the next mistake.
- Each flag comes with the bills behind it, for a person to review.
Plain about the limits.
- It does not replace your accountants. An authorized person approves every change.
- It does not replace the enterprise AI you already use. It adds the check against your books.
- It does not block payments in your bank. A held payment stays out of the approved list.
- It checks the file you bring, as of its date. Live accounting connections are not open yet.
- It makes no market calls.
