Axe & Inventory Distribution Agent

Matches desk inventory/axes to client interest and drafts the outreach.

Matches what the desk wants to move against which clients have shown interest, then builds and sends targeted axe runs per client. The matching, the message and the send run end-to-end behind a hard suitability and do-not-contact gate; a registered principal approves the outreach program and its templates, and a compliance agent-as-judge checks every send against them.
