Rivac LabsPaid Pilot Engagements
This is the formal, priced version of a real trial run — a scoped, fixed-fee pilot for one specific automation or AI workflow, tested against a success metric you sign off on before any work starts. It exists for teams who've been burned by open-ended AI vendor conversations that never produce a straight answer, and who want a contained, honest test of whether AI actually moves a number that matters to them. Because it's paid rather than a free discovery call, the pilot gets real engineering time against your actual data and systems, not a canned demo. At the end you get a plain-numbers readout of what happened and a clear decision point — scale it, adjust it, or walk away — with no obligation to sign anything further.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Diagnose the single highest-value workflow worth testing and lock a success metric and fixed fee in writing before work starts
- 2
Build the pilot against your real data and systems, scoped tightly enough to finish inside the agreed time box
- 3
Run the pilot live or in shadow mode long enough to generate an honest read on the agreed metric, not a cherry-picked snapshot
- 4
Review the results together in plain numbers and hand over a clear go/no-go recommendation for scaling into a retainer
