Product Maker / customer-facing products

Ship dependable actions inside your product boundary.

Expose a narrow customer workflow through your own tenant-aware backend and API while AnswerUp governs how the proposed effect becomes a bounded result.

What you can build

A customer-facing workflow with a host-owned API boundary

Build a SaaS action, connected-product operation, or developer-platform endpoint through your own tenant-aware API. Your product keeps identity, isolation, adapters, authoritative reads, records, support, and delivery while AnswerUp governs the protected lifecycle.

What differs for this path

Three integration decisions

Bind every request to authenticated tenant context and the exact tenant resource.
Use tenant-scoped provider and independent verifier boundaries behind the product API.
Return only the proposition-specific claim permitted by authoritative truth and operate tenant-isolated recovery.

Who owns what

Lifecycle governance inside a host-owned boundary

The same division applies across AnswerUp integrations; the host details below are specific to the product maker and host responsibilities.

AnswerUp governs

Binds grounding and authorization to the protected effect
Carries execution and attempt identity across the lifecycle
Normalizes verifier evidence into COMMITTED, DISPROVED, or UNKNOWN
Evaluates proposition-specific claim permission

Product Maker and host responsibilities

The host owns

Tenant-aware API, identity, policy, and isolation
Tenant-scoped providers, credentials, and independent verifiers
Persistence, support controls, and customer-facing delivery

One concrete scenario

Rerouting a customer shipment

A commerce backend authenticates a customer, grounds one shipment, and authorizes a new destination. Its tenant-scoped adapter calls the shipping API and a separate verifier reads authoritative shipment state; the product returns only the claim permitted for COMMITTED, DISPROVED, or UNKNOWN.
