AI agents are moving fast. Haltio makes sure they stop when it matters — and only when it matters.
import haltio
haltio.configure(
slack_webhook_url="https://hooks.slack.com/...",
agent_id="MyAgent-01",
timeout_seconds=300,
)
approved = haltio.checkpoint(
task="Delete production database",
description="Drops all tables — triggered by cleanup script",
risk_level="HIGH", # LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH
)
if approved:
run_dangerous_action()
else:
print("Action blocked by human.")Modern AI agents can send emails, delete files, call APIs, and deploy to production. Most teams have no mechanism to pause an agent before a critical action. Manually reviewing every task isn't scalable. Ignoring oversight entirely is how incidents happen.
"The average enterprise AI pilot fails not because the agent is wrong — but because teams don't trust it enough to deploy."
Without checkpoints, agents can delete data, send incorrect emails, or make expensive API calls with no human review.
Existing solutions require humans to approve every single step. Teams abandon oversight entirely within days.
Enterprises need audit trails, not just automation. No oversight layer = no enterprise deployment.
Tag tasks LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH. Only what you flag as important ever reaches a human. Everything else runs automatically.
Operators get rich Block Kit notifications the moment a checkpoint fires. Context, risk level, and approve/reject buttons — right in Slack.
A real-time approval dashboard shows every pending, approved, rejected, and timed-out action with full audit history.
No response within 5 minutes? The action is automatically blocked. Agents never hang indefinitely waiting on humans.
Add Haltio to any existing Python AI agent with 3 lines of code. No infrastructure changes. No new services to run.
Every checkpoint decision — who approved it, when, and why it was flagged — is logged to approvals.json. Compliance-ready.
Logged to the dashboard but executes without interruption. Use for read operations, logging, low-impact writes.
Agent stops and sends a Slack notification. Human approves or rejects via dashboard. Timeout: 5 minutes.
Red pulsing card in dashboard. Slack alert fires immediately. Same timeout, higher visual urgency. Use for destructive or irreversible actions.

As frameworks like LangChain, AutoGen, and CrewAI push AI agents into production pipelines, teams are shipping autonomous systems with no meaningful pause mechanism. Haltio is positioning itself as the standard approval SDK — the equivalent of a circuit breaker for agentic systems. First-mover advantage in a space with no established leader.
The open-source SDK creates developer adoption and trust. The paid layer is an enterprise dashboard with team-based approvals, SSO, RBAC, SOC 2 audit exports, and SLA guarantees. This is the Sentry playbook — start with a tool developers love, expand into enterprise compliance infrastructure.
