Company that demoed an agent too early · AI
The lock is the product. The model is the clerk.
A notebook demo could refund and email a list. It could not go near production. We scoped the job and the lock into the SOW.
What we shipped
- Job and lock written into the statement of work
- Keys on the server, metered per tenant, capped
- Twenty real examples as the release gate
- A flag so Monday still runs if the vendor is down
Before
A vendor demo with the API key in a screenshot and no kill switch.
After
The agent drafts. Money and sends wait on a person. They can turn it off on Friday.
- Time saved
- A flag
- Cost reduced
- Capped
The rest of the product stays up if the model does not
Keys on the server — never in the browser

“If it can refund without a name on the click, it is not a product. They made us write that down.”
