How Co-founder mode works
- You give the AI operator a directive.
- The operator plans and proposes tool uses, each with its expected cost.
- Each proposal waits in your queue. You approve or reject it.
- Approved actions run within your spending limit; rejected ones are recorded and skipped.
When to use human-in-the-loop
Use it when you start a new business, try a new tool, or when actions cost money. Switch to Autonomous mode once you trust the operator — the guardrails stay enforced either way.
The three operating modes
- Co-founder — every tool use needs your approval.
- Autonomous — the operator acts alone within hard limits.
- Scheduled — the operator runs on a timetable and reports each cycle.
