About withHuman

withHuman is an open source approval layer for AI Agents. When you want agents to take consequential actions like refund a customer, that's when withHuman is useful. It is a centralized point where you can encode rules like "refunds < $10 can be done automatically, anything more than that, send it to the on-call from customer support". You write your rules once and connect all of your agents, no changes needed, its transparent to the agent.
