Limited. Pinksheep's approval policy engine is first-class and configurable per action.

Which is better for production?

Pinksheep. Approvals, audit, and spend caps are built around production deployment.

Is Pinksheep cheaper than MindStudio?

Similar price floor. Total cost depends on volume; Pinksheep's credit model is predictable for operational workloads.

Can I preview every AI reply before it goes to a customer?
