• Phase 1: Strategic discovery and technical inventory
• Phase 2: Pilot scope definition and success criteria
• Phase 3: Prototype / dashboard / API concept review
• Phase 4: Pilot recommendation and partner briefing package

Any paid pilot, co-development, revenue share, licensing, joint venture, or long-term partnership would require a separate written agreement approved by authorized representatives and counsel.

The parties may negotiate a definitive Pilot Program Agreement covering scope, timeline, deliverables, fees, payment schedule, IP treatment, confidentiality, data handling, security boundaries, success criteria, and termination rights.

Potential pilot ranges may include:

• Focused Pilot
• Standard Pilot
• Extended Pilot

No pilot fee or payment obligation is created by this LOI alone.

The parties expect that any detailed technical, product, IP, commercial, security, or roadmap materials will be exchanged only under a mutually signed NDA or equivalent written confidentiality agreement.

Until such agreement is signed, each party should avoid disclosing sensitive confidential, regulated, export-controlled, third-party, or proprietary materials.

The parties may elect to include a limited exclusivity or limited focus period for a specific agreed pilot scope. Any exclusivity must be expressly selected, documented, and approved in writing.

Suggested optional language: For a period of ___ days after countersignature, Atlas agrees not to knowingly provide the same RAD-specific pilot scope to a direct competitor in RAD's defined domain, and RAD agrees to maintain good-faith focus on the agreed pilot scope. If not selected in writing, no exclusivity applies.

The parties may use a 30-day review window to confirm:

• Decision makers and legal entities
• Technical materials available for discovery
• IP ownership and documentation status
• First pilot use case
• Data and security boundaries
• Proposed pilot scope and success criteria
• Whether a definitive Pilot Program Agreement should be prepared

Either party may end discussions at any time unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Except for any expressly binding confidentiality, governing law, expenses, or optional exclusivity provisions approved in writing, this LOI is non-binding. It does not create a partnership, joint venture, agency relationship, employment relationship, fiduciary duty, payment obligation, IP assignment, exclusivity obligation, or obligation to proceed.

Each party retains all rights to its pre-existing intellectual property, software, code, models, data, patents, trademarks, methods, documentation, trade secrets, and know-how. No license, assignment, transfer, sublicense, exclusivity, ownership right, or commercialization right is granted by this LOI unless expressly stated in a signed definitive agreement.

Neither party may use the other party's name, logo, marks, personnel names, website references, or relationship description in any press release, website, social post, investor material, sales material, or public statement without prior written approval.

This LOI is governed by the laws of [State to be agreed], if and only if included in final signed form. Each party bears its own costs and expenses unless otherwise agreed in writing. This LOI may be executed electronically and in counterparts.
