ProductsUse case · Secure shared AI access

Give your team the tools. Keep control of the keys.

Let authorized teammates and agents use company APIs, MCPs, and connected systems through shared workflows - without passing raw credentials through chats, docs, or local setup guides.

Start free. Prove one approved integration across two authorized teammates.

Uses the workflow

Shared skill

Calls the approved tool

Share the capability to use the tool - not the credential itself.

Access follows company boundaries

The credential-sharing trap

AI workflows need company access. Teams should not need company secrets.

Without a shared access layer, every useful integration creates the same bad choice: block the workflow or distribute the credential.

01

Keys move through human channels.

API keys and setup instructions end up in DMs, docs, tickets, local files, and prompts because the workflow cannot inherit access safely.

02

Every teammate configures a clone.

The same integration gets rebuilt across machines and tools with different permissions, versions, and failure modes.

03

Revocation breaks the workflow.

When a person leaves or access changes, leaders must chase copies of credentials and rebuild local setups they cannot fully see.

04

Client and company access can blur.

A convenient local configuration makes it too easy to use the wrong account, dataset, or credential in the wrong company context.

The governed access model

Connect once. Grant deliberately. Use everywhere it is approved.

HQ separates the capability to use a system from the raw secret that makes the connection possible.

  1. 01

    Resolve the company boundary

    Decide which company or client owns the tool, data, credential, and workflows that will use it.

    Company owner
  2. 02

    Connect the approved system

    Add the API, MCP, or integration through the supported HQ secret and integration flow instead of a prompt or shared document.

    Operations / IT
  3. 03

    Grant the right capability

    Authorize the intended people, agents, skills, or projects to use what they need inside that boundary.

    Access owner
  4. 04

    Run without revealing the key

    Inject the credential at execution so an authorized workflow can use the tool without placing the raw value in its instructions.

    Reuse the working connection

    Let teammates and agents inherit approved access through shared capabilities instead of duplicating local setup.

  6. 06

    Change access centrally

    Update or revoke the governed grant and connection without hunting through every prompt, file, or machine that used the workflow.

Beyond local configuration

The team needs repeatable access, not another copy of the secret.

HQ makes the integration part of the company operating layer so access can travel with the approved work instead of the individual setup.

What governed access unlocks

More useful AI workflows with less credential sprawl.

The same access layer can support people, shared skills, project work, and persistent agents while preserving the intended company boundary.

01

APIs

Use approved service endpoints in repeatable workflows without embedding raw tokens in instructions.

02

MCP servers

Make connected capabilities available to authorized teammates through a shared company setup.

03

Company data

Let reports and analysis draw from intended sources inside the correct tenant boundary.

04

Client systems

Keep each client's credentials, context, people, agents, and outputs deliberately isolated.

05

Shared skills

Package tool use into a maintained method the team can run without reconstructing access.

06

Company agents

Give persistent AI teammates scoped capabilities that match their defined jobs.

What changes

Access becomes a company capability.

  1. 01

    Let authorized teammates use approved APIs, MCPs, data, and tools without receiving the raw credential.

  2. 02

    Reduce repeated local setup across people, machines, agents, and AI interfaces.

  3. 03

    Keep company and client connections inside the boundary that owns the access.

  4. 04

    Make shared skills and projects genuinely useful by connecting the systems their work depends on.

  5. 05

    Give agents the scoped access required for their jobs instead of broad secrets copied into instructions.

  6. 06

    Change or remove governed access without chasing every historical prompt and setup document.

Your first win

Share one useful tool without sharing its key.

Start with a low-risk, high-frequency integration. Prove that two authorized teammates can use it through the same workflow without handling the raw credential.

Connect your first shared tool
  1. 1

    Choose one approved API, MCP, or connected system.

  2. 2

    Confirm the company boundary and the people who should have access.

  3. 3

    Connect it through the supported HQ integration or secret flow.

  4. 4

    Use it inside one shared skill or project workflow.

  5. 5

    Have two authorized teammates run the workflow without seeing the key.

Precise security claims

Governed access is only as strong as its scope.

HQ uses explicit company boundaries and supported access flows. The exact protection depends on how each integration and grant is configured.

  • Use HQ-native secret, integration, membership, and grant flows where supported.
  • Keep credentials out of prompts, skills, project files, screenshots, and shared documentation.
  • Separate companies and clients deliberately; cross-company credential use is never a convenience feature.
  • Review and remove access when roles, projects, systems, or client relationships change.

HQ does not make a blanket compliance claim here. It gives teams a safer operating pattern: scoped grants, secret injection, isolation, and revocation where supported.

Share access the right way

Give your team the tools. Keep control of the keys.

Connect one approved system, put it behind a useful shared workflow, and let two authorized teammates use the capability without distributing the secret.
