$0 Services Retainer
Start with a signed framework. Pay only when scoped work begins.
The $0 Retainer gives your team a clean, no-cost way to approve the relationship, confidentiality model, notice terms, and future work mechanism before a paid AI security engagement is scoped.
- No monthly commitment
- No prepaid retainer
- No obligation to purchase services
- Fast procurement path for future scoped work
- Paid work requires a separate signed SOW or written authorization
