Pilot Program

Run 60 days on Trialflow — free, and built around you

We're opening a limited pilot cohort to research networks, academic centers, hospital systems, sponsors, and CROs. Full access at no cost, and a standing seat with our development team to shape the platform around the way your organization actually runs studies.

Applications close November 1, 2026

Who this is for

Built for organizations with scale to prove it on

The pilot is designed for entities running enough volume that a change in recruitment shows up in the numbers within 60 days.

Research networks & SMOs

Multiple sites, shared protocols, and a recruitment picture that currently lives in a different spreadsheet at every location.

Academic medical centers

Departments running competing studies against the same patient population, with IRB and compliance requirements that most tools ignore.

Hospital & health systems

Large referral bases that never make it into a study, and a screening process that cannot scale with the volume.

Sponsors & CROs

Portfolios where site-level recruitment performance is invisible until enrollment is already behind schedule.

What you get

Everything, plus the people who build it

A pilot that only hands you a login is a free trial. This is a working relationship with our engineering team.

Full platform access, free

Every feature on our top plan, unlocked for all of your sites and studies for the full 60 days. No card, no invoice, no trial-tier limits.

A direct line to the development team

Not a support queue. You work with the engineers building Trialflow, in a shared channel, with a standing weekly working session.

Features built for your use case

Protocol-specific screening logic, sponsor reporting formats, integrations, permission models — real development work scoped from what your team actually runs into.

Migration and onboarding done with you

We import your existing participant database, registry exports, and active studies, and deduplicate them before day one so the pilot starts on real data.

A measured readout at day 60

We baseline your recruitment metrics at the start and report against them at the end — time-to-contact, screening throughput, conversion, enrollment.

Your data, either way

If you walk at the end of the pilot, you leave with a full export. Nothing is held hostage, and there is no obligation to continue.

The 60 days

How the pilot runs

Structured enough to produce an answer, flexible enough to follow what your team finds.

Before day 1

Scoping and migration

A working session to map your protocols, sites, and current process. We migrate your existing data and configure funnels, criteria, and permissions to match how your team already works.

Days 1–14

Go live on real studies

Your coordinators run actual recruitment on Trialflow — not a sandbox. We train the team, watch where the workflow snags, and fix what gets in the way that week.

Days 15–50

Build cycles with the dev team

Weekly sessions turn what your team hits into scoped work. The customizations you asked for ship during the pilot, in your environment, and you use them before the pilot ends.

Day 60

Readout and decision

We put your starting metrics next to your ending ones and hand you the export. Continue on a plan that reflects what you actually use, or walk away — the pilot costs nothing either way.

What we ask in return

Your time, and your candor

The pilot is free because what we learn from you is worth more to us than the subscription. That only holds if you actually use it.

  • Run at least one actively recruiting study on the platform
  • A named point of contact who can make process decisions
  • One hour a week with your coordinators and our team
  • Honest feedback — including the parts we get wrong
  • A reference conversation at the end, only if the pilot worked

Questions

Pilot program FAQ

Is the pilot really free?

Yes. There is no cost for the 60 days, no card required to start, and no automatic conversion to a paid plan at the end. We are investing engineering time in exchange for working closely with sites at real scale.

What happens after the 60 days?

You decide. Continue on a plan sized to your organization, or export your data and stop. Pilot participants keep the features built for them and receive pilot pricing if they continue.

Who owns features built during the pilot?

The work becomes part of Trialflow, and you get it first. Anything specific to your protocols, sponsors, or internal systems stays configured for you. We never share your data or your workflows with other customers.

How is our participant data handled?

Exactly as it is for paying customers: encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access control, and audit logging on sensitive actions. We sign a BAA before any protected health information moves, and pilots are no exception.

How many organizations are you accepting?

A small cohort — this only works if our engineers can give each participant real attention. Applications close November 1, 2026, and we review them as they arrive.

We are a single site. Can we still apply?

Apply if you run high volume — several concurrent protocols or a large referral base. The program is designed for larger entities, but a single site with real scale is a good fit. Otherwise, a demo is the faster path.

The cohort closes November 1

Sixty days from now, you'll either have the numbers to make a decision — or you'll be exactly where you are today.
