# How Do I Keep a Human in the Loop When Using AI Agents?

You keep a human in the loop by making sure someone can see exactly what an AI agent has already answered or changed, and can step in at any point. On **Jestor**, this is built directly into how **AI Agents** work, you define what they can touch, and you can always see what they have done.

The fear behind "AI agents" is usually not automation itself, it is losing visibility. Human-in-the-loop design solves that by keeping every action traceable and reversible by a person.

## What worries teams about autonomous agents

- Not knowing what an agent has already told a customer
- No way to intervene before a mistake reaches someone external
- Agents editing fields that should stay under human control
- No clear line between what the agent decides and what a person decides

## How human-in-the-loop supervision works

- Teams can monitor, in real time, what the **AI agent** has already responded
- You define exactly which fields an agent is allowed to read or edit
- A person can take over a conversation or ticket at any moment
- Every action the agent takes stays visible in the record history

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Oversight is not an afterthought, it is built into how AI Agents are configured from the start
- Field-level permissions mean agents never touch what you have not authorized
- Visibility into agent activity applies to WhatsApp, tickets, and internal processes equally
- You can scale automation without losing the ability to intervene
