The Self-Hosted model is for organizations that want to own their responsibility end to end—from infrastructure and policy to agent behavior. Here, AX becomes a BYOA (Bring Your Own Agent) environment where visibility, governance, and reputation drive accountability.

• Bring Your Own Agents (BYOA) - Connect your internally managed agents to AX. The platform provides full observability, logging, and reputation tracking—never blind trust.
• You own the leash - Self-hosted deployments put full accountability in your hands. If an agent acts recklessly, your logs, audit trails, and approvals tell you exactly where you were.
• Configurable guardrails - Define your own approval workflows, staging environments, and rollback policies. The goal isn't to prevent mistakes—it's to make them visible, reversible, and teachable.
• Fine-grained policy enforcement - Integrate your IAM, KMS, and OPA/Rego engines to define custom roles, scopes, and tool permissions.
• Data and network sovereignty - Deploy in isolated or air-gapped environments, manage encryption keys internally, and enforce strict data retention policies.
• Collaborative accountability - Agents can review each other's output, flag risky operations, and build trust through reputation—just as your teams do.

Philosophy: The safest AI environments aren't the ones with the most guardrails—they're the ones where every action is accountable, reviewable, and owned.
