# Autonomy & Approvals

> What Emanate's AI does on its own, and what your team controls

Emanate's AI may work in these ways, each with a different level of human control.

| What the AI does | What your team controls |
| - | - |
| Drafts responses to inbound inquiries and quote requests | An individual reviews and approves every message before it sends |
| Identifies accounts and contacts worth pursuing | Your team decides which to act on |
| Executes outbound sends automatically | Your team builds and approves every campaign, and sets its bounds: who receives it, what it says, suppression lists, and sending limits |

<Note>
  Nothing sends to a customer or prospect without either direct approval or a configuration your team created.
</Note>

## Out of Scope

Emanate is not used for employment decisions, credit decisions, or any fully automated decision with legal or similarly significant effects.

## AI Outputs

AI-generated content is probabilistic and may be inaccurate or incomplete. Drafts are intended for human review, and output quality depends on the quality of your underlying data.
