Platform Roadmap Programs

Public-facing overview of Intended post-120-day programs — capability truth, promise boundaries, and persona-specific value for each program.

Platform Roadmap Programs#

This page documents the six strategic programs that were closed out from the post-120-day roadmap. Each section describes delivered capability truth and explicit promise boundaries.

Info

This document uses Intended's capability-truth classification with production delivery focus: implemented (code exists and is deployable) and external dependency (outside the codebase boundary).


1. Multi-Step Workflow Engine#

What It Does#

Governs chains of AI agent actions as a single authorized workflow — not just individual intents. Each step in the chain is independently authorized, auditable, and fail-closed.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Agent chain governance (7-state machine)Implemented
Workflow database schemaImplemented
Workflow API routesImplemented
Dynamic workflow plannerImplemented
Step-level authority evaluationImplemented
Workflow rollback/compensationImplemented

What This Means for You#

Operator: You can define, schedule, trigger, and intervene in workflows with per-step authority checks and audit lineage.

Developer: The workflow API is live with advanced contracts for scheduling, triggers, analytics, and intervention.

Enterprise admin: Agent chain governance is fully implemented — multi-agent state tracking, escalation, and replay work today.

Promise Boundary#

Multi-step workflows will not execute steps without per-step authorization. We will not ship a workflow engine that bypasses the authority gate for convenience or performance.


2. Billing & Commerce#

What It Does#

Usage-based billing for Intended platform consumption — metering intent evaluations, managing subscriptions, and enforcing plan entitlements.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Stripe connector (invoice, refund, list)Implemented
Billing admin roleImplemented
Usage meteringImplemented
Subscription lifecycleImplemented
Plan entitlementsImplemented

What This Means for You#

Enterprise admin: Billing infrastructure is live with subscription lifecycle handling, usage metering, reconciliation visibility, and entitlement guardrails.

Developer: No billing-related API changes are needed in your integration. Entitlement enforcement will be transparent at the gateway level.

Promise Boundary#

Billing enforcement will be fail-closed for entitlement checks — if billing status is unknown, access is denied. We will not silently allow overages. Metering will be reconcilable against the audit trail.


3. Connector Expansion#

What It Does#

Extends Intended authorization enforcement to downstream systems — cloud providers, ITSM tools, CRM, observability platforms — through the connector SDK.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Connector SDK frameworkImplemented
Adapter registry & discoveryImplemented
GitHub Actions connectorImplemented
GitHub PR connectorImplemented
Slack connectorImplemented
Stripe connectorImplemented
Jira connectorImplemented
ServiceNow connectorImplemented
AWS, Azure, Salesforce, DatadogImplemented

What This Means for You#

Developer: The connector SDK is production-ready for custom connector development and conformance validation.

Operator: 10+ provider-native connectors are available with fail-closed capability enforcement.

Enterprise admin: Connector security model will enforce credential isolation and fail-closed behavior for all connectors.

Promise Boundary#

Every connector validates a decision token before execution. No connector operates without authorization.


4. SOC2 Type I/II Execution#

What It Does#

Achieves SOC2 Type I and Type II attestation, proving that Intended meets enterprise security and compliance standards.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Immutable audit event ledgerImplemented
Cryptographic evidence chainsImplemented
Compliance pack exportImplemented
SOC2 policy pack lifecycleImplemented
CC1–CC9 control mappingImplemented
Continuous compliance monitoringImplemented
Type I/II execution handoffImplemented
External auditor-issued attestation documentExternal dependency

What This Means for You#

Auditor: Evidence generation, integrity verification, engagement workflows, and attestation handoff verification are live.

Enterprise admin: Intended's audit infrastructure is production-ready. SOC2 attestation is a program milestone, not a platform feature — it validates the controls already in place.

Security engineer: Fail-closed controls, enforcement lineage, and operational readiness checks are all implemented and documented.

Promise Boundary#

We do not fabricate external certifications. Auditor-issued attestation documents remain external artifacts and are ingested/verified by the platform.


5. Cross-Tenant Benchmarking#

What It Does#

Provides anonymized performance benchmarks so operators can compare their authorization performance against industry peers.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Per-tenant decision metrics (Prometheus)Implemented
HTTP request metricsImplemented
Policy simulationImplemented
Cross-tenant aggregation pipelineImplemented
Benchmark APIImplemented
Benchmark dashboardImplemented

What This Means for You#

Operator: Cross-tenant benchmark outputs are opt-in, anonymized, and confidence-scored.

Enterprise admin: Benchmark participation requires explicit tenant-level consent. No tenant data will be included in benchmarks without opt-in.

Promise Boundary#

Benchmarking will never expose tenant-identifiable data. If a cohort has fewer than 10 tenants, no benchmark data will be published for that cohort. Benchmarking is informational — it will not affect authorization decisions.


6. Intent Compiler & Domain LIM Ecosystem#

What It Does#

Makes Intended's Intent Compiler available as a standalone compile API and creates a marketplace for domain LIM packs.

Current Capability Truth#

ComponentStatus
Intent Compiler engineImplemented
LLM backends (Claude, OpenAI)Implemented
Rules-based classificationImplemented
Policy pack frameworkImplemented
Marketplace database schemaImplemented
Universal intent schema specImplemented
Marketplace APIImplemented
Federation protocolImplemented
Ecosystem SDKImplemented

What This Means for You#

Developer: Intent Compiler is embedded in tenant evaluation pipelines and exposed through versioned service APIs.

Operator: Policy packs are available through marketplace workflows with provenance and compatibility enforcement.

Enterprise admin: Marketplace packs will be sandboxed and provenance-verified before installation. No pack can bypass authorization or exfiltrate data.

Promise Boundary#

Intent Compiler services enforce tenant isolation and versioned contracts. The marketplace does not permit unverified packs.
