## What Haven is, in three sentences

Your user gives you a **budget on their own account** — not their wallet, and not a key to their funds. The budget is a delegation they sign, enforced on-chain: a payment over it, to the wrong recipient, or past its expiry is refused at execution time, not by a dashboard promise. Haven constructs and relays the payments; you get an agent credential and a signing key made on your machine, and your user can revoke the budget without you and without Haven.
