What's included in your trial

Your 30-day trial is the full Rhenari product with no feature restrictions. Everything available in your plan tier is active from Day 1:

  • Continuous monitoring across all connected integrations — Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365, Jira, and Azure DevOps
  • Daily Momentum and Confidence scores delivered in your configured Teams channel
  • Plain-language insights explaining what's driving acceleration or friction
  • Proactive alerts for drift, anomalies, confidence gaps, and capacity signals
  • Full access to the Rhenari workspace — Momentum trajectory, department-level views, structured decision and communication workflows
  • Department scoping with role-based access (Admin and Viewer roles)

To learn how Rhenari works, see the product page. For setup instructions, see the Onboarding guide.

Trial limitations

The trial is time-limited, not feature-limited. A few characteristics of the product affect what you'll experience in the first 30 days:

  • Baselines take time — Rhenari needs time to build a baseline of your organization's normal patterns. Confidence starts low and climbs as signal accumulates — meaningful readings take days, not hours.
  • Team scope affects output quality — A small or inactive team will produce less signal, which limits pattern detection. Scope a representative, actively working team for the most useful trial.
  • Tool coverage affects the picture — Connecting only one tool gives you a partial view. The more signal sources connected — communication, calendar, delivery — the more complete the execution picture.
  • The trial window matters — A team in a quiet sprint, between planning cycles, or during a freeze period will generate less movement to detect. If your trial coincides with a low-activity period, the results may not be representative.

Before you begin

A successful evaluation starts with clarity about what you want to learn. Define your question, confirm your setup can answer it, and address any concerns before you start.

Define your evaluation goal

A focused trial produces clearer results. Before you start, identify the question you want answered by Day 30. The rest of the trial is structured around testing that question with real data.

"Is my roadmap actually on track — or am I relying on filtered status updates?"

"Am I getting the full picture of cross-team coordination, or just what gets reported?"

"Would I catch drift early enough to act — or only when it surfaces in a review?"

"Are there early signs of capacity strain I'm not seeing through existing channels?"

Write your evaluation goal down. You'll return to it on Day 30 to assess whether the trial answered it.

Identify your primary use case

With your goal in mind, identify which Rhenari capability you should focus on during the trial. Rhenari can surface many patterns, but a focused evaluation produces clearer results. You can always expand to additional use cases after establishing initial success.

Your questionFocus on
Is execution aligned with the roadmap?Daily Momentum trajectory and drift alerts
Is cross-team coordination working?Friction and acceleration insights across teams
Would I catch drift before it compounds?Proactive alerts and Momentum shift explanations
Are there early signs of capacity strain?Capacity and sustainability signals, coordination overhead patterns

For detailed descriptions of each use case, see Use Cases.

Define your success criteria

What does a successful trial look like for your specific goal? Define this before you start — not at the end. You don't need quantitative targets. You need a clear statement of what would convince you.

  • If your goal is roadmap alignment — Success means Rhenari's Momentum trajectory matched or challenged your understanding of how execution was tracking — and the insights explained why, in terms you recognized.
  • If your goal is drift detection — Success means Rhenari flagged a divergence — drift, an anomaly, a confidence gap — before it surfaced through a status meeting, standup, or escalation.
  • If your goal is coordination visibility — Success means Rhenari named a cross-team pattern — friction, collaboration shift, coordination overhead — that no one reported to you but that you or a peer recognized as real.
  • If your goal is capacity monitoring — Success means Rhenari surfaced early indicators of strain — rising meeting load, after-hours patterns, friction spikes — before they became visible through attrition or missed deliverables.

Write your success criteria alongside your evaluation goal. These are the benchmarks you'll assess against on Day 30.

Scope your trial

The quality of your trial depends on three configuration decisions. Get these right and Rhenari has what it needs to produce meaningful output.

  • Choose a representative team — Scope a department that reflects real work — active collaboration, in-progress delivery, regular communication. A test group or a team between projects won't generate the signal Rhenari needs to produce meaningful scores.
  • Connect real tools — The minimum viable configuration: Microsoft Teams + Microsoft 365 + Jira or Azure DevOps. This gives Rhenari three signal types — communication, calendar, and delivery. Connecting only one tool produces a partial picture. The more signal sources active, the more complete the execution picture and the higher Confidence will climb.
  • Pick the right window — Start the trial during an active period — mid-sprint, mid-quarter, during a planning cycle. A team in a quiet period, a holiday month, or a post-launch freeze will generate less movement, which limits what Rhenari can detect.

For step-by-step setup instructions, see the Onboarding guide. For details on what each integration reads, see Integrations.

Not sure you're scoping it right? During Early Access (all trials started before March 2027), the Rhenari team helps you configure your trial for the most meaningful results — team selection, tool connections, and department scoping. You don't have to get this right alone.

Know what to explore

Rhenari's daily Momentum cards arrive passively — you don't have to go looking for them. But the full value of the trial includes features you need to actively explore. Use this table to guide your exploration based on your primary use case.

FeatureWhy it mattersWhen to look
Daily Momentum cardYour daily read on whether execution is converging or diverging — delivered before your first meetingEvery morning from Day 2 onward
Momentum trajectoryShows direction over time — is the trend improving, declining, or flat? More useful than any single day's scoreIn the workspace, starting Week 2
Proactive alertsFlags drift, anomalies, confidence gaps, and capacity signals before you'd see them through other channelsIn your Teams channel as they fire
Insight categoriesAcceleration, Friction, Confidence, Maintained — each tells you something different about what's happening and whyIn the workspace insight feed
Department viewsSee how execution health varies across teams — useful for identifying where friction concentratesIn the workspace, once departments are active
Decision workflowsStructured tools for moving from signal to action — directly in TeamsWhen an insight or alert warrants a response

Plan your deliverables

Know what you're building toward before you start. If you need to justify the purchase decision to a manager, procurement, or IT, plan to capture these during the trial — not after it ends.

  • Your evaluation goal and success criteria — the question you defined and whether the trial answered it
  • 2–3 Momentum card screenshots — cards that named a real pattern, especially ones that surfaced something your status meetings didn't
  • At least one alert example — an alert that arrived before the same information reached you through existing channels
  • Decision impact — at least one decision you made differently because of a score, alert, or insight
  • One-paragraph assessment — was the execution picture Rhenari delivered more complete than what you had before?

Common questions before starting

What data does Rhenari access?

Behavioral metadata — communication patterns, meeting cadence, task activity. Never message content, email bodies, or documents. Security overview

Will my team know they're being monitored?

Rhenari reads organizational patterns, not individual behavior. All outputs are team-level and anonymized. Individual data is never surfaced to any user.

What if it doesn't surface anything I didn't already know?

Consistent execution aligned with the roadmap is a finding — not an absence of value. The trial is also affected by team size, tool coverage, and whether the window was representative.

What happens when the trial ends?

Your subscription continues through Microsoft Marketplace, or cancel before Day 30. No infrastructure to remove. No data locked in.

Run your evaluation

With your goal defined and your tools connected, here's how the evaluation unfolds — and what to do at each stage.

Suggested trial timeline

Week 1Connect and configure

Rhenari connects to your tools and starts reading signals. Your first Momentum and Confidence scores appear in Teams. Confidence will be low — that's expected. The system is building its baseline.

The question: is Rhenari reading your organization?

What to do

  • Complete onboarding: access, permissions, notification channels, departments
  • Verify all integrations show active status in the Rhenari workspace
  • Confirm the department you scoped is representative — a real team, not a test group
  • Check that your first Momentum card arrived in the configured Teams channel
Week 2Watch the picture form

Confidence climbs as signal accumulates. Daily Momentum cards arrive consistently. The plain-language insights start naming patterns you recognize — how your teams actually coordinate, where friction lives, what's driving acceleration.

The question: is the signal strengthening?

What to do

  • Read the Momentum card each morning before your first meeting — does it match your intuition?
  • Share one Momentum card with a peer or your Chief of Staff and ask: does this name something real?
  • Check integration health — if a data source disconnected, Confidence will stall
  • Screenshot any insight that describes a pattern you recognize but hadn't seen reported
Week 3Test against reality

This is where Rhenari's value becomes visible — or doesn't. Patterns shift in real time that a quarterly review would have missed. The Momentum card explains what drove the change. And the patterns come from the data, not from what anyone reported to you.

The question: is Rhenari surfacing what your existing processes don't?

What to do

  • After your next status meeting or standup, compare: what did the meeting surface that Rhenari didn't? What did Rhenari surface that the meeting didn't?
  • Open the Rhenari workspace and review Momentum trajectory — does the direction match your experience?
  • Note any decision you made differently because of a score, alert, or insight
  • Save any alert that arrived before the same information surfaced through existing channels
Week 4Assess and decide

Return to the evaluation goal you defined before the trial. Did Rhenari answer it? Did you learn something you wouldn't have known otherwise — and did you learn it early enough to act? The absence of surprises is a reading, not an absence of value.

The question: what changed about how you understand your organization's execution?

What to do

  • Review your evaluation goal — did the trial answer the question you set out to test?
  • Compile your evidence: screenshots, saved alerts, decision notes, peer feedback
  • Write a one-paragraph assessment: was the picture Rhenari delivered more complete than what you had before?
  • If you're presenting to stakeholders, use the Champion Guide to structure the conversation

What kinds of things you'll see

Rhenari surfaces execution patterns your existing processes miss. During the trial, expect to see:

Roadmap alignment

Whether execution is converging on what was planned — or quietly diverging.

Cross-team coordination

Patterns of collaboration and friction that no one is reporting to you.

Early drift detection

Drift flagged in days — before it compounds into a quarter-level problem.

Capacity signals

Rising friction, coordination overhead, and strain indicators before they become attrition.

Document and decide

You defined your goal and planned your deliverables before the trial started. Now compile what you captured and make your assessment.

Review your evidence

Return to the deliverables you planned before the trial. Compile the screenshots, alerts, decision notes, and peer feedback you captured during the evaluation. Then write your one-paragraph assessment: was the execution picture Rhenari delivered more complete than what you had before?

Two honest checks before you decide:

  • Did the trial answer your evaluation goal? — Compare what Rhenari surfaced against the question you set out to test. Did you learn something you wouldn't have known otherwise? Did you learn it early enough to act?
  • Was the trial a fair test? — If the picture was familiar and nothing surprised you, check: was the configuration complete? Was the window representative? Consistent, high-Confidence Momentum aligned with the roadmap is a reading — not an absence of value. But an incomplete setup or a quiet month isn't a fair test.
