Ship governed AI agents inside your product.
You own the customer, your UX, and your domain model. Zahen supplies the part your customers' compliance teams demand and you don't want to build: governed execution, human approvals, grounded retrieval, tool governance, and an audit trail — a governed execution layer between your product and any model.
The embeddable, multi-tenant engine is being productized through a design-partner program. The governed engine itself is live today — see exactly what's live vs. what we're building below.
Every product needs agents. Almost none want to build governance.
Gartner projects that ~33% of enterprise software applications will include agentic AI by 2028, up from under 1% in 2024. Your customers already expect agentic features — and their compliance teams already expect approvals, tenant isolation, and an audit trail. Building that yourself is months of specialist work that isn't your differentiator.

You own the customer. We own trustworthy execution.
The hard parts are table stakes — not your product.
| Capability | Build it yourself | Embed Zahen |
|---|---|---|
| Human approval + audit UX | Design, build, and maintain it yourself | Pre-built approval inbox + append-only audit |
| Grounded, access-filtered RAG | Retrieval, permissions, citations from scratch | Permission-filtered retrieval with citations, built in |
| Tool governance | Registry, schemas, secrets, kill-switch — all custom | Governed tool registry with brokered credentials |
| Time to a governed agent | 8+ months of specialist work — not your differentiator | Weeks, on a maintained engine (via the design-partner program) |
What the engine does today — and what we're building for embedding.
We separate these on purpose. The governed engine is live and running in production as a single-tenant deployment. The multi-tenant embedding layer is the roadmap the design-partner program is built around.
The governed execution engine
- Grounded, access-filtered retrieval with source citations
- Human approval — five outcomes, no self-approval
- Append-only audit of every request, tool call, and decision
- Governed tool registry with brokered credentials + kill-switch
- Durable, checkpointed execution that resumes after a restart
- Dedicated, single-tenant deployment per customer
The embedding layer
- An embedding SDK + signed execution-context contract
- Multi-tenant isolation behind your service boundary
- Usage metering scoped per origin system and tenant
- Configurable policy profiles for data class, retention, and residency
- SOC 2 / ISO 42001 attestations for your customers' reviews
We won't tell you multi-tenant isolation, the embedding SDK, usage metering, or SOC 2 are shipped when they're being built. We won't claim certifications we don't hold. The reason to talk now is to shape the engine you'll embed — and to get in before the terms and the roadmap are fixed. If ungoverned agents are a non-starter for your customers, that's exactly the problem we're built for.
