Use the service recommender when you know the business pressure but not the best Folium offer lane.

Prove one workflow

Use the proof lab when stakeholders need to inspect a safe working surface before private data, live providers, or production dependency.

Ask a trust question

Use the trust center when the next decision depends on data boundaries, launch authority, human gates, support ownership, or recovery.
