Computes numerical risk scores for transactions, decisions, or business events by applying configurable scoring models through MCP tool endpoints. The system accepts transaction context (amount, user profile, historical patterns, geographic data) and returns normalized risk scores (typically 0-100 or 0-1 scale) that indicate likelihood of fraud, default, or policy violation. Scoring logic is abstracted behind MCP tool interfaces, allowing pluggable risk models (rule-based, ML-based, or hybrid) without client-side implementation.
Unique: Exposes risk evaluation as standardized MCP tool endpoints, enabling any MCP-compatible client (Claude, custom agents, workflow engines) to invoke risk models without SDK dependencies or direct model access. Decouples risk model deployment from client application logic.
vs alternatives: Unlike point-solution fraud APIs (Stripe Radar, Kount), ActionGate's MCP abstraction allows teams to plug in proprietary or open-source risk models and integrate scoring into broader agent-driven workflows without vendor lock-in.
Simulates the predicted consequences of approving, rejecting, or conditionally gating a transaction or decision by running forward-looking models that estimate downstream effects (revenue impact, fraud loss, customer churn, compliance risk). The simulation engine accepts a proposed action and current context, then returns projected outcomes across multiple dimensions (financial, operational, regulatory). This enables decision-makers to evaluate trade-offs before committing to a policy.
Unique: Integrates outcome simulation as a first-class MCP tool, allowing agents to reason about decision consequences within a single conversation context. Simulation results feed directly into downstream decision logic without round-tripping to external systems.
vs alternatives: Compared to static decision rules or lookup tables, ActionGate's simulation capability enables dynamic, context-aware decision-making that accounts for trade-offs. Unlike academic simulation frameworks (AnyLogic, SimPy), ActionGate is purpose-built for real-time business decision support and integrates natively with agent workflows.
Enforces business policies by evaluating transactions against configurable rule sets and decision trees, then returning a gate decision (approve, reject, challenge, escalate) with optional conditions (e.g., 'approve if amount < $5000 and risk_score < 40'). The gating engine applies policies in sequence, short-circuiting on hard blocks and accumulating soft constraints. Policies are defined declaratively (not in code) and can reference risk scores, user attributes, historical patterns, and external signals. Decisions include metadata (policy rule matched, confidence, remediation steps) for audit and debugging.
Unique: Policies are defined declaratively and evaluated server-side through MCP tools, decoupling policy logic from client applications. Supports conditional gating (not just binary approve/reject) and includes decision metadata for audit trails and debugging.
vs alternatives: Unlike hardcoded business logic in client applications, ActionGate's declarative policy engine allows non-technical stakeholders to modify rules without code changes. Compared to general-purpose rule engines (Drools, Easy Rules), ActionGate is optimized for transaction gating with built-in support for risk scores, user segmentation, and conditional actions.
Embeds ActionGate decision endpoints directly into MCP-based automation workflows, allowing orchestration systems (agents, workflow engines, CI/CD pipelines) to call risk evaluation, simulation, and gating tools as native steps. Decisions are returned synchronously with full context, enabling downstream workflow steps to branch based on gate outcomes (e.g., approve → process payment; reject → send decline notice; challenge → trigger 2FA). The integration is protocol-native (MCP tools), eliminating the need for custom API wrappers or polling loops.
Unique: Natively integrates as MCP tools, allowing any MCP-compatible workflow engine or agent to invoke decisions without custom adapters. Decisions are first-class workflow steps with full context propagation and branching support.
vs alternatives: Compared to REST-based decision APIs, ActionGate's MCP integration eliminates the need for custom HTTP clients and enables tighter coupling with agent reasoning loops. Compared to embedded decision libraries, MCP integration allows centralized policy management and decision auditing across distributed systems.
Evaluates risk across multiple independent dimensions (fraud risk, compliance risk, operational risk, customer lifetime value risk) by running parallel or sequential scoring models and aggregating results into a composite risk profile. Each dimension uses a specialized model (e.g., fraud detection uses gradient boosting; compliance uses rule-based scoring) and returns both a score and contributing factors. The system supports weighted aggregation, allowing different dimensions to contribute differently to the final decision. Scoring models are pluggable and can be swapped without changing client code.
Unique: Supports pluggable, independent risk models for different dimensions with configurable aggregation logic, enabling teams to mix rule-based and ML-based scoring without architectural changes. Returns per-dimension scores and factors, enabling explainability and debugging.
vs alternatives: Unlike monolithic fraud detection APIs that return a single score, ActionGate's multi-dimensional approach allows teams to understand and weight different risk types independently. Compared to building custom risk aggregation logic, ActionGate provides a standardized framework with audit trails.
Automatically logs all gating decisions (approve/reject/challenge) with full context (transaction details, risk scores, policy rules matched, timestamp, user ID) to an audit trail. Logs include decision metadata (confidence, contributing factors, alternative outcomes) enabling post-hoc analysis and compliance reporting. The audit trail is queryable and exportable, supporting regulatory requirements (PCI-DSS, GDPR, SOX) that mandate decision documentation. Logs are immutable (append-only) and include cryptographic signatures for tamper-evidence.
Unique: Audit logging is built into the decision engine (not a separate layer), ensuring every decision is logged with full context. Logs include decision metadata (confidence, factors) enabling root-cause analysis beyond simple approve/reject records.
vs alternatives: Compared to application-level logging (which is often incomplete or inconsistent), ActionGate's centralized audit trail ensures comprehensive coverage. Compared to generic audit frameworks, ActionGate's logs are optimized for decision analysis and compliance reporting.
Applies different policies and risk thresholds to different user segments (new vs returning customers, high-value vs low-value, geographic regions, risk tiers) by evaluating user attributes and historical behavior to determine segment membership, then routing to segment-specific policies. Segmentation logic is declarative and can reference user profile, transaction history, and external signals. Each segment has independent risk thresholds, approval rates, and challenge strategies, enabling tailored decision-making without duplicating core logic.
Unique: Segmentation is declarative and integrated into the policy engine, allowing segment-specific policies without code duplication. Segment membership is evaluated per transaction, enabling dynamic segmentation based on current user state.
vs alternatives: Compared to hardcoding segment logic in applications, ActionGate's declarative segmentation allows rapid policy changes. Compared to manual segment management, ActionGate's automated evaluation ensures consistency across decisions.
Routes transactions flagged as medium-risk to challenge workflows (additional verification steps like 2FA, identity verification, or manual review) instead of outright rejection. Challenge strategies are configurable per policy and can adapt based on risk score, user segment, and transaction context (e.g., high-value transactions require manual review; low-value require 2FA). The system tracks challenge outcomes (user completed verification, failed, abandoned) and feeds results back into risk models to improve future scoring. Challenge workflows are defined declaratively and can integrate with external verification providers (SMS, email, biometric).
Unique: Challenge workflows are first-class decision outcomes (not just approve/reject), with configurable strategies and outcome tracking. Challenge results feed back into risk models, creating a feedback loop for continuous improvement.
vs alternatives: Compared to static approve/reject decisions, ActionGate's challenge capability reduces false positives and improves user experience. Compared to manual challenge workflows, ActionGate's automation and outcome tracking enable data-driven optimization.
