Evidence register.

  • Annual fuel, delay, disruption, and overflight exposure: $140,000,000
  • Primary proof metric: fuel burn, minutes saved, delay propagation, alternate risk
  • Benchmark surface: run /evals before changing prompts, models, or Catalyst-Q scoring.
  • .rain replay: every accepted plan recommendation must carry a replay id and model/solver lineage.
  • Browser Run: capture screenshots for approval workflows, portal evidence, and human handoff moments.
  • Realtime datasets: stream optimization events through cloudflare-pipelines for finance-grade attribution.

Telemetry contract.

  • event_type=roi_recommendation for every candidate recommendation
  • event_type=roi_acceptance for every human-approved action
  • event_type=roi_outcome for realized cost, service, safety, or reliability results
  • event_type=roi_exception for stale data, guardrail blocks, and rejected recommendations
  • Join keys: tenant, agent_id, workflow, rain_event_id, baseline_id, rollout_cohort, model_route, solver_version

Acceptance gates.

  • Baseline replay: Advance only if hard constraints match or beat baseline and projected value clears the buyer's pilot threshold.
  • Shadow mode: Advance only if operators accept the workflow and shadow deltas remain stable across normal disruptions.
  • Controlled rollout: Convert only the savings finance can attribute after discounting for adoption, noise, and operating cost.
  • Verified contract: Expand only when verified savings support the next scope and risk controls are current.

Rollout motion.

  • Start with historical baseline replay and a signed baseline-cost definition.
  • Run shadow mode until the operator experience and deltas survive normal disruptions.
  • Move one bounded cohort into controlled rollout with holdout or pre/post attribution.
  • Renew or expand only on verified net savings after platform, pilot, and adoption discounts.

Operator controls.

  • Human approval remains required for production-impacting actions.
  • Decision support only
  • Never replace certified dispatch or ATC clearance
  • Require data freshness and NOTAM/weather provenance
  • No safety-critical autonomous actions

Pricing motion.

  • Free proof should show one constrained scenario, not unlimited optimization.
  • Paid pilot should include baseline replay, shadow mode, and the first finance packet.
  • Production should use hybrid pricing: base platform fee, usage meters, and optional verified outcome upside.
