Use a pilot when the first decision needs evidence
First agree the recurring interaction, source material, allowed actions, systems, handoff and test method. Depending on the uncertainty, a scoped pilot may be useful. Pilot scope and commercial terms are agreed before it begins.
The pilot can show the tested questions, action permissions, failed API calls, handoff context and acceptance results. The relevant owners can also inspect system access, data handling, action logs, handover and named operating ownership.
Production is a separate decision after the team reviews those results. If it proceeds, managed improvement can cover source updates, monitoring, incident ownership and regression tests for the accepted interaction.
Bring the interaction that repeats
Tell us what keeps repeating, which systems are involved and when a person should take over.
The AI Implementation intake records that context, and YPAI reviews it before proposing project scope and commercial terms.
