Restrictledger

A spend-control and attribution layer for nonprofit AI agents that checks scoped budgets and permitted categories, maps approved transactions to restricted-fund subledgers, and preserves reviewable grant-compliance evidence.

The case

Agent wallets can already enforce transaction and period limits, while payment protocols make machine purchases practical. Those controls do not answer the nonprofit accounting question: which award, budget line, purpose, approval, and cost-allocation rule support a particular expense? Restrictledger adds a fund-aware policy and evidence layer between an agent request and payment. Its defensible asset is not payment routing but the reviewed history connecting each request, authorization, settlement, accounting export, exception, and supporting artifact.

Who pays — and why

The finance, grants, operations, or compliance leader at a nonprofit allowing software agents to purchase paid data, services, or other program inputs.

What it unlocks
Fund, award, program, budget-line, purpose, vendor, category, time, and amount rules evaluated before a payment is released
An append-only chain joining the agent request, policy version, approvals, payment result, allocation, accounting export, exception, and supporting evidence
Reconciliation and reviewer queues that keep automation failures, split allocations, credits, refunds, and questioned costs visible

Temporal window

The supplied transaction and active-agent figures indicate a current adoption window.

8
Buyer persona

Nonprofit finance and grants teams own a concrete authorization, allocation, and audit-evidence job.

5
Convergence

The input carries several connected ideas and live infrastructure evidence but moderate independent convergence.

Why it scored well

A concrete nonprofit finance buyer, live agent-payment rails, current transaction growth, and a specific fund-attribution gap support the concept.

What's holding it back

Fund rules are award-specific, payment authorization does not establish allowability, integrations and review remain difficult, and generic wallet providers can expand.
