ProceedGate is a pre-call guard designed to help manage the cost and risk of running expensive or sensitive AI workflow tool calls. It acts as an intermediary step before requests are made to external services such as OpenAI, Replicate, SerpAPI, Firecrawl, Apify, SAP, CRM systems, or internal HTTP endpoints, aiming to detect repeated tasks, budget pressure, and potential runaway loops before a paid or sensitive operation is triggered. This tool is intended for developers and teams who orchestrate AI agent workflows and need to monitor, control, and optimize their operational costs while preventing unnecessary or repeated requests.
The platform provides an API with several endpoints, including /v1/check, which performs loop detection, credit checks, and returns a signed proceed token if the request is allowed. The response includes information such as the loop detection zone (safe, gray, or storm), iteration count, and remaining credits. If a loop or budget issue is detected, the API can block the request and return a human-readable reason and hints for remediation. Advanced governance checks are available, offering AI-driven policy evaluation, detailed reasoning chains, and confidence scores to support nuanced decision-making in complex workflows. Batch operations for checking multiple requests and webhooks for real-time event detection are also supported.
ProceedGate is delivered as a cloud-hosted API, running on Cloudflare Workers for low-latency global access, and requires authentication via a Bearer token. SDKs are available for Node.js, LangChain, Vercel AI SDK, CrewAI (Python), and n8n integration, with code examples provided for both Node.js and Python. All endpoints are served over HTTPS, and API keys can be obtained for free, providing up to 5,000 checks per month without requiring a credit card. Additional checks can be purchased in packs, allowing users to scale their usage as needed.
As a reusable governance component for AI workflow orchestration, ProceedGate enables teams to insert cost and risk controls directly before workflow steps that might incur charges or handle sensitive data, supporting both general orchestration and specific use cases such as scraping and retry-storm workloads.
proceedgate-crewai sits in PulseGate's Frameworks & SDKs category. It focuses on integrating cost governance controls into CrewAI agent workflows for developers. proceedgate-crewai is an open-source project aimed at AI developers using CrewAI. The project is open source (MIT). It runs on the web and the command line.
It is developed by ProceedGate, and the product first shipped in 2026. Among its 5 catalogued features are cost governance, crewAI integration, and MIT license.
