01Product

The control plane for production AI.

Lattice treats an AI action as a governed event. Observe every execution, define what agents are allowed to do, hold the consequential actions for a human, attribute the cost, and keep a record that can be reconstructed.

ObserveGovernApproveOptimizeAudit

02What Lattice controls

Six things, precisely.

Agents
Every agent in every environment, with an owner and a risk classification.
Models
Which providers and models an agent routes to, and what each call cost.
Tools
The tools an agent may reach, and whether each one is allowed, gated or denied.
Data
Which stores an agent may query, and which fields are redacted before inference.
Actions
The consequential call itself — held, approved, denied or allowed to proceed.
Evidence
An append-only record of who acted, under which policy, and what resulted.

05The product

See the entire AI system.

One map of every agent, the models it calls, the tools it can use, the data it reads and the policies that stand between them. Switch the overlay to change what the same map tells you.

Live lattice map — agents, models, tools, data and the systems they act upon. 13 nodes and 14 connections. Customer agent, a agent in prod · low risk, connects to General large. Research agent, a agent in staging · low risk, connects to Reasoning mid. Finance agent, a agent in prod · medium risk, connects to General large and Reasoning mid. General large, a model in provider a, connects to CRM tool and Knowledge index and Refund API, through a allow gate and allow gate and approval gate. Reasoning mid, a model in provider b, connects to Knowledge index and Ledger database, through a allow gate and redact gate. CRM tool, a tool in read, connects to CRM. Knowledge index, a data in vector store, connects to Warehouse. Ledger database, a data in read, connects to Warehouse. Refund API, a tool in write, connects to Approver. CRM, a system in system of record, terminal node. Warehouse, a system in analytics, terminal node. Approver, a human in finance ops, connects to Payments. Payments, a system in financial, terminal node.

07The five control layers

Five layers. One operating surface.

Observe, govern, approve, optimize and audit are not separate products. They are one path that every governed action travels, in that order.

Reconstruct any action after the fact.

Each governed action leaves an append-only record: the actor, the action, the policy version that applied, the approver if there was one, and the result the target system returned.

09Agent inventory

Agents are infrastructure. Manage them like it.

An agent has an owner, an environment, a risk classification, a set of tools it may reach, the models it routes to, the policies attached to it and an operating cost. That makes it an asset, not a script.

Runtime

Every run, as it actually happened.

A run is a trace made of spans: model calls, tool calls, data access and policy evaluations. Human approval time is recorded but excluded from agent latency, because the agent was not the slow part.

10Policy engine

Write the boundary once. Enforce it everywhere.

A policy is a condition and an action. Because it is evaluated at the boundary rather than inside the prompt, it applies whatever the model decided to do.

Move the test amount below ₹50,000 to watch the decision change.

Keep a human on the decisions that matter.

The held action arrives with the trace, the context and the exact call attached — enough to decide without opening four other systems. Approve or reject below; both write an audit event.

Audit

Five fields answer the question an auditor actually asks: who, what, when, why and result. Expand a record to see them aligned, with the policy version and the approver that applied.
