# DesignOps Pilot

> Hand routine design system upkeep to a supervised agent

- Price: €5–8k / mo
- Timeline: Ongoing

Component requests pile up. Token values drift between design files and code. Release notes get written last, if at all. DesignOps Pilot runs a supervised agent that triages components, keeps tokens honest and drafts release notes. Your team approves every change.

## Use it when upkeep crowds out design system work

- Component requests wait weeks for triage
- Token values drift between design files and code
- Release notes are written late or not at all
- The core team spends more time on upkeep than on improvements

## What DesignOps Pilot covers

The agent works in your existing repositories and tools. It sorts incoming component requests and issues, flags token drift between design and code and drafts release notes from merged changes. Every output goes to your team for approval before anything ships.

## Not included

- Changes merged without human approval
- Building new components from scratch
- Replacing the design system team

## How DesignOps Pilot runs

1. Connect the agent to the repositories, trackers and design files in scope.
2. Agree on what the agent may draft and what always needs approval.
3. Run triage, drift checks and release note drafts on a regular cadence.
4. Review the results monthly and adjust scope, rules and guardrails.

## What you receive

- A configured agent running in your tools
- Triage of incoming component requests and issues
- Token drift reports between design and code
- Release note drafts ready for approval
- A monthly review of results and guardrails

## How the price is set

Ongoing, billed monthly. The monthly price depends on the number of repositories, design files and teams the agent covers.
