One assessment maps a live workflow — relationships, data boundaries, decisions, and token economics — so you know what you actually need before committing to a vendor or an architecture.
You ran a pilot. The model worked, but the costs ran past the value, nobody could explain what it was doing with which data, and the project stalled before it reached production. The Manta Graph™ Assessment maps the workflow the pilot ran on — what the model actually needed versus what it received — so you can right-size the architecture, kill the overhead, and move the work into production with a structure you can explain and defend.
You haven't committed yet, and the caution is right — but the window is narrowing. The Manta Graph™ Assessment maps the workflow before you choose a model or sign a vendor agreement. You find out what your data and decision structure actually require, which models fit, and which boundaries need to hold, before any of those constraints are locked in. You move from architecture, not from a vendor pitch.
Describe one workflow. GlobalizeWe maps it. Regulated-tier submissions without context are rejected before scheduling.
Token bloat, the Frontier Model Trap, and the map the intake asks for.
A Manta Graph™ assessment maps the relationship topology of one live AI-assisted workflow — what touches what, where decisions happen, which systems hold state, and what the model is actually being asked to do — before committing to a model, a vendor, or a production architecture. The output is a visual topology, an executable schema, and an economics summary that makes the real cost and risk visible before deployment.
Two types of team: one that ran a pilot, impressed the room, then stalled because nobody could prove what the model did with which data — and one that hasn't committed yet and wants to map the workflow before choosing a frontier model vendor. Both start from the same place: one workflow, mapped before anything scales.
Token bloat happens when a model is given more context than the workflow actually requires — usually because nobody has mapped what the task really needs. The model runs longer, costs more, and produces noisier output. A Manta Graph™ assessment identifies which context is essential and which is overhead, so you right-size the model to the actual information topology.
Committing to a frontier model vendor before you know what your data and workflow actually require. The trap closes when integration costs, data-sharing agreements, and vendor lock-in are already in place before the structure of the problem is clear. Manta Graph™ makes the structure visible first.
Invoice-first: 100% on signed scope as a fully creditable retainer. No online checkout. The diagnostic fee credits in full toward your GW Slate™ build if you proceed. Flexible terms are available for qualified engagements — ask us.
Once the assessment maps the workflow, GW Slate™ binds identity, policy, and receipts around it — so the governed version runs as the map describes.
