How It Works

No coding required. No context switching. Reviewers don't even need an account — they decide directly from a secure link.

1
Add an Approval Step

Add an approval step anywhere in your workflow using the visual builder.

2
Notify Reviewers

Send approval requests via email or Slack to up to 10 reviewers. The workflow pauses and waits.

3
Decide & Resume

A reviewer approves or rejects with a single click. The workflow resumes automatically, branching based on the decision.

Use Cases

Human in the Loop fits naturally into workflows that need oversight before critical actions.

Content Review

AI generates a blog post or email, a human reviews and edits before publishing.

Finance Approvals

Automatically process expense reports, but require manager approval above a threshold.

Customer Operations

Flag high-value refund requests for manual review before processing.

DevOps

Gate production deployments behind a team lead's approval via Slack.

HR Workflows

Route leave requests or onboarding tasks through the right approvers.

Data Access Requests

Require security team approval before granting access to sensitive data or production databases.

Why It Matters

Full automation is powerful, but trust requires oversight. Human in the Loop gives you the best of both worlds: the speed of automation with the judgment of your team.
