Access Request Reviewer

Access requests pile up in IT, and rubber-stamping them is how over-permissioning and security incidents start. This assistant reads each request - who, what system, and why - checks it against your access policy, flags least-privilege concerns, and drafts an approve, deny, or escalate decision. Your team grants the right access fast, without becoming a bottleneck or a security risk.

Use cases

Good to know

Runs with no external connection - your data stays in your Gaia workspace. The assistant recommends; a person approves before access is granted.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Access Request Reviewer automatically grant or deny access?

No, it never auto-approves or auto-denies. The assistant drafts a decision, but a human must review and approve before any access is granted.

How does the assistant check if a request follows least privilege?

It compares the requested access - user, system, and reason - against your access policy, then flags any concerns like over-permissioning or elevated risk.

Which systems or apps does this assistant connect to?

It works entirely within your Gaia workspace with no external integrations. Access requests and policies are managed on Gaia's native table.

Can I customize the access policy it uses to make decisions?

Yes, you define your access policy directly in your Gaia workspace. The assistant uses that policy to evaluate each request.

Is there an audit trail of who approved or denied each request?

Yes, every decision the assistant drafts and every human action is logged, creating an auditable trail of all access decisions.
