Policy Engine

Your rules, enforced before signing.

Set rules for who can move funds, how much, to which addresses, and when — enforced before a transaction is signed, no app-layer bypasses.

How it works

Every transaction passes through three gates

The policy engine sits between your application and the signing layer. Transactions cannot reach signing without passing every applicable rule.

01

Transaction submitted

A transaction is initiated — by a user, an automated system, or an AI agent. It enters the policy engine with its full context: sender, recipient, amount, token, chain, and time of day.

02

Rules run in order

Each rule is evaluated against the transaction context, cascading from most restrictive to most permissive. The first match determines whether to approve, reject, or escalate the transaction.

03

Outcome enforced

Approved transactions proceed to the signing layer. Rejected transactions are blocked instantly with an alert. Escalated transactions are held pending approvals from the configured quorum.

Every control you need, out of the box

Pre-built controls you can combine into policies as granular as your operations require — no custom code.

Velocity caps

Limit how many transactions can occur within any time window — stopping sweeping attacks and unusual automation in their tracks.

Address whitelists

Only permit outflows to pre-approved addresses. New destinations require explicit approval before funds can flow there.

Role-based approvals

Assign approval authority by organizational role. CFOs, risk officers, and operations leads each have defined scope and signing power.

Per-token rules

Apply different policies to different assets. BTC, stablecoins, and DeFi tokens can each carry their own controls and limits.

AML / KYT integration

Block outflows to flagged addresses automatically. Chainalysis and Elliptic risk scores are available as conditions in any rule.

Full audit trails

Every policy decision — approval, rejection, or escalation — is logged with full context and exportable for compliance review.
