Human approval for AI automation

When your AI is wrong,
catch it before
it costs you.

Approvio sits between your AI and your systems. When your AI produces an output, a human on your team reviews it first — before it reaches your ERP, your CRM, or your customers.

Approve in seconds. Reject with a reason. Fix the error and send the corrected version back — automatically.

Who it's for

Any workflow where an AI
mistake is not an option.

If you're automating a process where errors have real consequences — financial, legal, or operational — Approvio gives you the human backstop that makes automation safe to run at scale.

Invoice & purchase order approval

AI reads the document. Your team verifies the numbers.

Your AI extracts line items from scanned invoices or purchase orders. A team member checks the totals before they reach your accounting system.

Contract review

Flag issues before legal signs off.

AI summarises the contract and flags key clauses. Your compliance team reviews and approves — with every change logged for the audit.

Customer onboarding

Human validation for edge cases.

AI processes onboarding submissions. A reviewer handles anything the AI isn't certain about. Every decision is documented for regulators.

Compliance & regulatory decisions

A human signature on every high-stakes call.

For decisions that require a documented human sign-off — sanctions screening, credit approvals, policy exceptions — Approvio provides the structure and the audit trail.

Data entry from documents

AI extracts. Humans confirm.

AI reads forms, emails, and documents and structures the data. A reviewer spot-checks before it lands in your CRM or database.

Custom approval workflows

Build any checkpoint your business needs.

Define exactly what your reviewers see and can edit. Works for any structured data type.

The risk

One bad AI output.
One very expensive morning.

A purchase order. AI misread the unit price — €4,200 became €42,000. Ten times the real number. It went straight to the finance system. Nobody caught it until the payment cleared.

This isn't a hypothetical. The AI is right 95% of the time. That last 5% is the problem.

Errors reach your systems before anyone notices

There's no automatic pause between your AI and your production data. By the time the error surfaces, it's already had consequences.

No record of who reviewed what

When something goes wrong, tracing the decision back takes days. Who saw this? Who approved it? What did it look like at the time?

Your team reviews in three different tools

The alert comes in Slack. The document is in email. The approval is in a spreadsheet. Every extra step is a chance to miss something.

How it works for reviewers

One screen. Everything in one place.

When your AI produces an output, Approvio sends your reviewer a link. They open a single screen — the original document on the left, the AI's extracted data on the right. Approve, reject, or fix in seconds. No tool-switching. No context gap.

Side-by-side view

Source doc + AI output on one screen. No tab-switching.

Edit anything

Labeled form fields anyone can understand. Not a technical data dump.

Edit history

Every change is saved, with who made it and when.

Result goes back

The corrected data is sent back to your automation automatically.

Human-readable review

Your finance team doesn't read JSON.

AI produces structured data — lists, numbers, nested fields. Without Approvio, your reviewers see a technical data dump. With it, they see labeled form fields, readable tables, and plain descriptions.

A finance manager can review a 20-line invoice and approve it in under 30 seconds. No training. No manuals. No technical knowledge required.

Complete audit trail

Who approved this? When? What did they change?

Every action in Approvio is recorded automatically — who reviewed it, when they reviewed it, what the AI's original output was, and exactly what the reviewer changed.

You can answer any audit question in seconds. Export the full history for any regulator or internal review. Nothing is editable after the fact.

Learning loop

Every human fix is a lesson your AI doesn't forget.

When a reviewer corrects an AI error, Approvio saves exactly what was wrong and what the right answer was. Over time, you build a record of every mistake your AI made and every correct answer a human provided.

Most teams use this to improve the AI tool they're already using — feeding corrections back to get more accurate outputs month over month.

Setup

From your automation tool
to live approvals in under an hour.

Approvio connects to any automation tool. Your workflow sends an output to Approvio. A reviewer approves it. The corrected result goes back to your workflow automatically.

01

Your automation sends the AI output to Approvio.

One step in your automation workflow — no code, no configuration. Works with any tool that can make a web request.

02

Your reviewer gets an email with a link.

They open a single screen — the source doc and the AI output side by side. 30 seconds to review.

03

The approved result goes back to your automation.

Your workflow continues with the human-verified data, not the AI's original version.

For engineering teams: the full integration is one API call.

POST /api/review-sessions
POST /api/review-sessions
{
  "template_id": "invoice-approval",
  "assigned_to_email": "reviewer@yourcompany.com",
  "callback_url": "https://your-workflow.com/approved",

  "approval_data": {
    "vendor": "Acme Corp Ltd",
    "invoice_number": "INV-2024-0847",
    "line_items": [...]
  }
}

That's it. No SDK to install. No config file. Approvio sends the reviewer email, handles the review screen, and sends the result back to your callback URL when the reviewer is done.

Case study

A €42,000 error caught in 45 seconds.

A procurement automation was extracting invoice data from scanned PDFs. The AI misread a unit price — 10× the real number. With Approvio in the workflow, the finance reviewer caught it on the review screen, corrected it, and approved the right amount. The ERP received a verified number.
