Where AIM fits
AIM is the pre-decision intelligence layer for technology modernization.
Workflow platforms, AI control towers, and execution runtimes help organizations run the work once a platform has been chosen. AIM operates upstream of all of that — helping organizations understand what their environment actually needs, what the lifecycle cost will be, what the risks are, and how to defend the decision before the contract is signed.
By the time execution-layer governance kicks in, the procurement decision is already made and the lock-in is already paid for. AIM is in the window where the money is actually being committed.

How AIM Works
Overview of the AIM platform, assessment process, and recommendation engine.
Getting Started
A public walkthrough from invitation through the first assessment and delivery record.
AIM Mission Control
Observation, human review packages, and no-change rehearsals — without giving AIM change authority.
Scout Observation
Read-only environment evidence from a customer-hosted gateway, reconciled against documented systems.
Scoring Methodology
How AIM calculates, curates, and audits RAO dimension scores for technology recommendations.
Constraints & RAO
How constraints influence scoring and how the RAO engine prioritizes recommendations.
Supply Chain Assurance
How AIM evaluates product evidence, uncertainty, and organizational risk tolerance across software, hardware, cloud, SaaS, and AI.
Decision Transparency
How AIM ensures traceable, auditable, and defensible technology recommendations.
Cost Estimate Confidence
How AIM sources, validates, and reports confidence for hardware/cloud/SaaS cost estimates.
AI Approach
How AIM uses AI responsibly for document generation while keeping humans in control.
Project Pulse
Real-time project tracking, milestone management, and delivery monitoring.
Pulse Sustainment Mode
The post-implementation lifecycle layer — change requests, board votes, configuration drift, compliance events, and procurement actions, all tied back to the as-built baseline when enabled by the organization agreement.
Layer 1 Infrastructure
Physical infrastructure cost estimation methodology for cabling, pathways, and labor.
Lifecycle Affordability
Why knowing what a system costs to build is not the same as knowing what it costs to own — and how AIM surfaces the gap before the contract is signed.
Data & Privacy
What data AIM collects, how it is used, and how long it is retained — including our NIST-aligned audit log retention schedule.
AI Audit & Decision Provenance
How AIM cryptographically seals every AI-assisted recommendation and lets any auditor independently verify it — no account required. Patent pending.
Accessibility
Our commitment to WCAG 2.2 AA and Section 508 conformance, current status by platform area, known limitations, and how to report a barrier.
Guest Mode — Data Handling & Retention
How AIM handles the information you enter in Guest Mode, and what happens to it over time.
What is collected
When you submit a Guest Mode assessment, AIM collects the answers from your intake form (project type, organization type, goals, systems, compliance requirements, etc.) and uses them to generate an AI-produced Executive Summary. To enforce usage limits and prevent abuse, AIM also temporarily records your IP address, a browser fingerprint, and a persistent device token stored in your browser's local storage.
How long it is retained
Rate limit records
24 hours
IP address, browser fingerprint, and device token used only to enforce the 3-per-day usage limit. Deleted on a rolling basis.
Guest session data
30 days
Form responses and the generated report are retained for up to 30 days for security, support, and an explicitly authorized transfer into a provisioned organization workspace. Automatically purged after expiration.
What we do not do with your data
- We do not sell or share your guest session data with any third party.
- We do not use guest data to train AI models.
- We do not contact you based on guest data — no email, no marketing.
- Guest Mode does not create an account; any transfer to a provisioned organization requires explicit authorization and tenant validation.
Security
Guest session data is stored in the same encrypted, access-controlled Supabase infrastructure that protects all AIM data. Row-level security policies restrict access to service-role API routes only — no client can query your session directly. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.
Carry over your assessment when you sign up
If you create an account within 30 days of running a guest assessment, AIM can automatically link your guest session to your new account — so you don't have to fill out the form again. Your intake data will be available to pre-populate your first full assessment.
Account & Organization Data — Retention Policy
How AIM handles assessment data, organization records, and contract history while a workspace is active or after it closes.
While your account is active
All assessment data, architecture recommendations, reports, and organization records are retained while your organization workspace is active. Nothing is automatically deleted while your contract is in good standing. Authorized users can archive or remove assessments from within the platform.
Retention periods by data type
Assessments & reports
90 days after cancellation
Assessment content, architecture outputs, and generated reports are retained for 90 days after organization closure unless the agreement or applicable law specifies another period.
Contract & financial records
7 years
Agreements, invoice history, and payment records are retained for the legally or contractually required period outside the product workspace.
User accounts & profiles
90 days after cancellation
User login credentials and profile data are removed 90 days after the organization closes, unless the user has access to another active organization.
Audit & activity logs
3 years
Platform audit logs (logins, exports, attestations) are retained for 3 years for security and compliance defensibility.
What happens when an organization closes its workspace
Access is locked immediately
Your organization is placed in a read-only locked state. No new assessments can be created, but existing data is preserved.
90-day retention window begins
A 90-day clock starts from the organization closure date. An authorized contract administrator may request restoration during this window.
Permanent purge at day 90
Assessment content and personal information are permanently deleted. The organization record is anonymized and required contract or financial records are retained outside the workspace.
Requesting early deletion
Organization admins may submit an explicit account deletion request at any time from their account settings. This triggers the same 90-day window and gives you the opportunity to cancel the request before data is permanently removed. Once purge processing begins it cannot be reversed. For immediate deletion requests, contact [email protected].
What we do not do with your data
- We do not sell or share your assessment data or organization records with any third party.
- We do not use your assessment content to train AI models.
- We do not retain personal information beyond the schedules above.
- Contract and entitlement metadata is available only to authorized administrators and operational personnel.
Need to restore a closed workspace?
If an authorized restoration is approved before the 90-day window closes, the workspace and its assessments, reports, and organization data can be returned to active status without re-entry.
Platform Concepts
Understand the core building blocks available through an AIM organization deployment.
Assessments
An assessment is a structured modernization project inside AIM. You describe your current environment, constraints, and goals—then AIM scores technologies, generates architecture diagrams, and produces procurement-ready exports. Assessment capacity is governed by your organization agreement.
Project Pulse
Project Pulse tracks the health of your modernization after the assessment is complete. It covers milestones, epics, team capacity, and delivery status—giving leadership a real-time view of whether projects are on track when enabled for the organization.
Pulse Sustainment Mode
Pulse Sustainment Mode (PSM) picks up where Project Pulse leaves off. When the implementation is complete, PSM freezes the original Pulse as the as-built baseline and starts the operational record—change requests, board votes, configuration drift, compliance events, and procurement actions.Learn more →
