Open pilot: help us test ScopeGuard for margin and delivery risk

[hlinor-systems]

We are inviting early pilot testers

ScopeGuard is an open-source, local-first review tool for finance, sales and delivery teams. It compares an agreed project scope with later client communications.

The pilot separates two types of signals:

• Scope drift — a new deliverable, change or request that may be outside the agreed work.
• Commercial risk — cancellation, payment risk, product availability or customer delay.

The goal is simple: help teams spot margin and delivery risk before work continues.

Who we want to hear from

We are looking for people who handle customer orders, scope changes, cancellations, payment or availability issues, and finance, sales operations or delivery reviews.

How to try it

1. Use a scope document as the baseline.
2. Add a redacted communication export (.eml, .txt, .md or .json).
3. Run the analysis.
4. Review the Scope drift and Commercial risks queues.
5. Tell us what was useful, wrong or missing.

The hosted pilot is currently private and access is arranged manually. The local-first version is available in the repository:

What feedback would help most

• Was the result understandable?
• Were there false positives or missed risks?
• Which source should come first: Gmail, Slack or WhatsApp?
• What would make this useful in a real finance or sales review?

Please use synthetic or redacted examples only. Do not post customer conversations, contracts, email addresses, phone numbers, payment details or credentials.

Use the pilot feedback issue for structured results or to request hosted access.

This is an early pilot, not a financial or legal decision system. Human review remains required.
