Agent Governance Pilot
Get from "compliance won't sign off" to "deployed in production" in 2-4 weeks.
Fixed-fee pilot: $15,000 - $25,000 Duration: 2-4 weeks from kickoff
What You Get
We implement UAPK Gateway for one high-value workflow and deliver a production-ready deployment with all the governance, approvals, and audit trails you need.
Deliverables
Production Manifest
UAPK Manifest defining agent boundaries, policies, budgets, and escalation rules
Deployed Gateway
Running UAPK Gateway instance on your infrastructure (self-hosted VM or cloud)
Integrated Agents
Your agent(s) connected via API, calling /v1/gateway/evaluate and /execute
Approval Workflows
Human-in-the-loop approvals configured for high-risk actions (web UI + API)
Evidence-Grade Logs
Tamper-evident interaction records with verified chain integrity
Compliance Bundle
Sample audit log export formatted for regulators and auditors
Operator Training
2-hour training session for your operators (approve/deny, export logs, verify chain)
Documentation
Runbooks, troubleshooting guides, and production deployment checklist
3-Phase Approach
Phase 1: Discovery & Design (Week 1)
Activities:
- Requirements workshop (2-3 hours)
- Map agent roles, actions, and tools
- Define policy rules and escalation thresholds
- Design approval workflows
- Document compliance requirements (SOC2, GDPR, internal audit)
Deliverables:
- UAPK Manifest (draft)
- Integration architecture document
- Success criteria and acceptance tests
Phase 2: Implementation (Week 2-3)
Activities:
- Deploy UAPK Gateway to your infrastructure
- Configure authentication (JWT + API keys)
- Integrate target agent(s) via API or SDK
- Implement connectors (HTTP, webhook, custom tools)
- Configure approval workflows (web UI + API)
- Set up tamper-evident logging with hash chaining
- Deploy to staging environment
Deliverables:
- Running UAPK Gateway instance (staging)
- Integrated agent(s)
- Active UAPK Manifest
- Approval workflow (UI + API)
- Interaction logs with verified chain
Phase 3: Validation & Handoff (Week 3-4)
Activities:
- End-to-end testing (happy path + edge cases)
- Security review (secrets, API keys, connector allowlists)
- Performance validation (latency, throughput)
- Operator training (2-hour session)
- Documentation review
- Production deployment planning
Deliverables:
- Test results and performance benchmarks
- Compliance export bundle
- Operator runbook
- Production deployment checklist
- 30 days post-pilot bug fixes
Success Criteria
Pilot is considered successful when:
- Target agent(s) integrated and calling gateway APIs
- UAPK Manifest active with policy enforcement (ALLOW/DENY/ESCALATE)
- Approval workflow tested and operational
- Tamper-evident logs verified (chain integrity check passes)
- Compliance export bundle generated and reviewed
- Operators trained and able to manage approvals
- Production deployment plan approved

Post-Pilot Options
Option 1: Self-Managed (Open Source)
Continue with the self-hosted deployment independently:
- Apache-2.0 license (fully open)
- Community support via GitHub
- You own the infrastructure and deployment
- No recurring fees
Option 2: Enterprise Support
Transition to ongoing support contract:
- Custom connectors (Salesforce, M365, etc.)
- SLA (4-hour response, 99.9% uptime)
- Version upgrades and security patches
- Pricing: $3K-$10K/month based on scale
FAQ
Q: What if we have multiple workflows to govern?
The pilot focuses on one high-value workflow to prove value quickly. After success, you can expand to additional workflows either independently (open-source) or through additional engagements.
Q: Can we start with a blueprint instead of a full pilot?
Yes. Our Blueprint Package ($5K-$10K) delivers the design and architecture first. Then you can choose to implement yourself or proceed to a full pilot.
Q: What if the pilot doesn't meet our objectives?
We work closely to ensure success. If objectives aren't met, there's no obligation to continue. We define success criteria upfront to ensure alignment.
Q: Can we deploy on-premise?
Yes. Pilots support both cloud and on-premise deployments. We work with your infrastructure team to deploy where you need it.
Q: Do you sign NDAs and MSAs?
Yes. We accommodate most standard enterprise procurement processes including NDAs, MSAs, and custom SOWs.
Q: What happens after the 30-day bug fix period?
You can self-manage (open-source) or transition to an Enterprise Support contract for ongoing maintenance and features.
