Gift & Hospitality Approval Reviewer
A gift or client dinner gets approved on goodwill - before anyone checks the recipient's role, whether a contract is in play, or what's already been given this year. This assistant screens each gift, hospitality, and entertainment request against your policy thresholds, flags public-official recipients, deal-timing conflicts, and year-to-date totals that breach the cap, and returns approve, conditions, or deny for a compliance reviewer to sign off.

How it works
- A gift, hospitality, or entertainment request comes in - the giver, the recipient and their organization and role, the occasion, the estimated value, and whether a deal or tender is active - alongside your gift & anti-bribery policy and the recipient's year-to-date gift history.
- It checks the value against the applicable threshold, flags government and public-official recipients for heightened scrutiny, tests the timing against any pending award, and aggregates year-to-date totals to the same recipient.
- It returns a decision - approve, approve with conditions, or deny - with each flag tied to the policy and anti-bribery basis, plus a corruption-risk rating and reviewer notes.
- Each request lands as one row in your register for a compliance reviewer to authorize.

Good to know
No external connection - your approval requests, policy, and gift log stay in your workspace. The assistant checks each request against monetary thresholds, recipient type, timing against any active deal or tender, and year-to-date aggregation, flags the policy and anti-bribery basis, and recommends approve, approve with conditions, or deny; it never authorizes a gift on its own. A compliance reviewer signs off on every request.
