n8n, Zapier-style flows, and CrewAI crews automate business processes with AI steps. Each step that touches CRM, finance, or infra is an action — gate it like any agent tool.

One API for workflows

await sanctum.verifyAction({
  actor: 'finance-crew',
  action: 'post_slack',
  context: { channel: '#payments', amount: 12000 },
})

Governance wins

  • Quota and anomaly alerts to ops
  • Verification queue for high-value transfers
  • Audit export for SOX-style reviews
