01
Authority matrix
Read, draft, recommend, execute, publish, send, spend, and delete are separate powers—not one blanket permission.
Human authority layer
Put the rules where the work happens
Design AI Employee authority, approvals, budgets, prohibitions, evidence, and emergency controls as operating features.
Direct answer
AI Employee governance defines who owns the role, what the employee may do, what requires approval, what is prohibited, how work is evidenced, and how authority can be paused or revoked.
Inside the system
Built around the work that matters
Every capability is tied to a role, a boundary, and a reason to exist.
02
Approval gates
Consequential work pauses for the right human, with enough context to approve, reject, or revise it.
03
Prohibited actions
The role specification records actions the employee must never take, even if technically possible.
04
Evidence and audit
Proof logs make operating decisions reviewable instead of burying them inside chat transcripts.
05
Emergency control
Credentials, schedules, connectors, and the runtime can be paused without improvising during an incident.
06
Budget boundaries
Usage, vendor spend, and external actions belong inside explicit operating limits.
“Autonomy without authority design is not an employee. It is an unmanaged risk surface.”
Common questions
What buyers ask next
01What is an AI Employee?
An AI Employee is a named, role-based digital worker with a defined mission, connected business systems, documented authority, approval gates, operating memory, and measurable work. It is designed around a job—not around an open-ended chat window.
02Does an AI Employee replace human authority?
No. Cloud Radix defines what the AI Employee may do, what requires approval, and what it is prohibited from doing. Humans retain authority over consequential business decisions.
