Diemwarden
A government-travel policy gate that versions authoritative rates and rules, explains exceptions and reconciles pre-trip review with voucher evidence.
Official travel can involve rate ceilings, carrier restrictions, approved lodging, agency chains and documented exceptions. The supplied research confirms a public per-diem interface and primary federal carrier rules, but two of three proposed integration surfaces remain unverified and a government travel system is generally not contractor-accessible.
Diemwarden evaluates a proposed itinerary against an agency-approved, source-dated rule corpus. It produces findings and missing-evidence questions for an authorized reviewer, then records approval, booking-provider acknowledgment, native readback, travel changes and voucher evidence separately.
Rule match, policy exception, traveler request, supervisor approval, booking, ticketing, trip completion, expense evidence, voucher submission and reimbursement remain distinct. A signed packet shows what was evaluated and approved; it does not establish legal compliance, allowable cost or payment.
The first release should be read-only for one traveler population and one trip type. It excludes autonomous booking, exception approval, voucher certification and access to systems whose interfaces or permissions are not verified.

Versioned rules and repeatable evaluations can scale through software once sources are governed.
Automation can prevent avoidable errors, while stale or misapplied rules can make an invalid trip appear defensible.
The product gap is clearer than the historical barrier that kept it unbuilt.
Authoritative rates are programmatically available, government travel has concrete rules and a reusable rule corpus can scale across trips.
Two proposed integrations are unverified, the government system is restricted, competitors already perform non-agentic checks and no structural incumbent barrier is evidenced.
