Guardian Payment Review Agent
The Guardian Payment Review Agent reads each request from a guardian for school fees, living costs or other needs, checks it against the beneficiary fund rules and the child's remaining capital, and confirms the invoices, statements and proof of guardianship. It recommends approve, query or decline with the reason cited, so every payment out of a child's benefit is justified and recorded.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.
Every payment justified
Each request is tested against the fund rules and the documents, with the reason written down, so a payment can be explained to the child, the guardian or the regulator years later.
Capital protected
Withdrawals are tracked against what is left in the child's benefit, so the capital lasts until the child comes of age.
Faster answers for guardians
Complete requests are cleared quickly and incomplete ones get a clear list of what is missing on day one.
Capabilities
Every guardian request checked against the fund rules and the documents, before it is paid.
Built for beneficiary fund administrators, benefits teams and boards of trustees managing benefits held for minors and dependants in South Africa.
Rule check
Tests each request against the beneficiary fund rules, the trustee resolution and any limits set for the child.
Document check
Confirms the invoices, statements and proof of guardianship, and flags documents that are missing, out of date or for someone else.
Capital tracking
Shows withdrawals to date against the child's remaining capital and flags requests that would draw it down too fast.
Guardian verification
Checks that the person requesting is the recorded guardian and that the payee and bank details match.
Payment recommendation
Recommends approve, query or decline for each request, with the reason and the amount.
Cited to the source

Deployment
Runs inside the tools your team already uses
The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.
In the frontier assistant you already pay for
We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.
"Is this request allowed under the fund rules?"
- beneficiary
- Minor, age 12
- request
- School fees, R18,600
On a model you host yourself
Run the agent on open-weight models in your data centre or private cloud. Your beneficiary records never leave your network, which keeps POPIA and data residency straightforward.
- Llama
- Mistral
- Ollama
- or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
Inside your own software
Trigger a run from your own workflows, and push the finished output into your ERP, GRC or reporting systems. We build the integration with your team.
- REST API
- Webhooks
- Batch jobs
- Embeddable review panel
Governed the same way, every route
Whichever way your team reaches the agent, identity, permissions and audit stay with your existing controls.
- Single sign-on through Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace
- Reads only the documents each user is already allowed to open
- Every tool call written to an audit log you can export
How we deliver it
One agent, three ways to hold it
Start where your team already works, then take it as far into your systems as the value justifies.
DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY
Your beneficiary records stay yours.
The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what each task needs, and never trains on your beneficiary records. Every step is logged so your auditors can see exactly what it touched.
Built for regulated work.
+YOUR BENEFICIARY RECORDS NEVER LEAVE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
