Things I build
to think.
Small working explorations of trust, context, and control.
How much autonomy should software have over money?
An original, brand-neutral concept built for this portfolio. The agent proposes; a person grants a bounded permission; the system records what happened. It is independent of BECU work.
AGENT PERMISSIONS / ORIGINAL CONCEPTSIMULATION · NO MONEY MOVES
Save a little.
Keep the final say.
Move $250 to Rainy Day, with a $1,000 minimum left in Everyday.
- Everyday after transfer
- $1,250 projected
- Protected minimum

Nothing happens until you confirm.

A permission needs a beginning and an end.
Confirmation is only one state. Revocation, cancellation, and consumption of a one-time permission also need to be visible. The receipt keeps those transitions understandable.
