Operations and approvals

Stop chasing approvals through loose email threads.

Many approvals still happen by email. Gent turns those messages into routes with recipients, reminders, response evidence, and audit history.

Business problem

Where the value leaks.

Quotes, invoices, contracts, policy changes, and exceptions get forwarded around until someone replies. Later, nobody is sure who approved what or which version mattered.

Gent value

What changes operationally.

Email-native sign-off

Recipients can approve, reject, acknowledge, or request changes without logging into another portal.

Ordered or parallel paths

Route work to everyone at once or require one group to finish before the next starts.

Visible status

Route events show who responded, when, and with what evidence.

Approval boundary

Work can block, expire, or escalate instead of becoming another reminder thread.

Workflow path

How the email becomes managed work.

Start

Create a work route from a source email or operational request.

Send

Ask recipients for approval, acknowledgement, changes, or text response.

Record

Capture email replies as route responses with matched evidence.

Complete

Move the work forward only when completion and failure rules are satisfied.

Build it

From outcome to implementation.

Start with the buyer-facing use case, then use the workflow recipes and API sections below to implement the operating path.
