Setting confidence thresholds your auditors will accept

Every Kestrel agent decides with a confidence score. The threshold you set decides what it does alone and what it hands to a person.

Start high

Begin at 98% for postings and 95% for matches. In shadow mode, look at what falls just under the line and lower it only when those cases are consistently right.

Set different limits by risk

A threshold can depend on the amount, the vendor’s history or the account. Large or unusual entries can always require a reviewer, whatever the score.

Write it down

Auditors don’t need to understand the model. They need a written policy, evidence that it was followed and a log of every exception. Kestrel exports all three.
