Safety & HITL

Level 3 workflows should include Human-in-the-Loop checkpoints for high-risk actions (email send, CRM write, payment). Audit-ready trace logs required for production.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the 4 levels of agentic workflow complexity?
Level 1: Trigger-Action (linear, if A then B, no reasoning). Level 2: RAG-Enhanced (retrieval-augmented, search-based answers). Level 3: Agentic (planning/execution loops, independent tool use). Level 4: Multi-Agent (orchestrated swarms, specialist role collaboration).
What is Cost Per Inference (CPI)?
CPI is the cost to process one task or decision. For human workflows, it's labor cost per task. For AI, it's API costs (tokens) × tasks. Higher complexity workflows often have lower CPI at scale because AI handles variability without per-task human labor.
When do I need Human-in-the-Loop (HITL)?
Level 3+ workflows should include HITL for high-risk actions: email send, CRM write, payment, external API calls. Audit-ready trace logs are required for production. HITL checkpoints prevent costly mistakes and satisfy compliance requirements.
