## [Budget and pilot](https://walnut.sg/faq/#budget-head)

### How was it tested?

We test DataBridge on synthetic company data with known answers, so every result can be checked. Each result carries its date, and a pilot runs the same checks on your files.

- [How each result was measured](https://walnut.sg/proof/)

### How much does DataBridge by Walnut cost, and how long is a pilot?

Not published on this site: prices and pilot length. Write to outreach@walnut.sg.

## [Daily use](https://walnut.sg/faq/#daily-head)

### Does DataBridge replace our systems?

Your systems keep running. DataBridge reads data where it sits and feeds the tools you choose, so an old system can be retired on your own schedule.

## [Data and models](https://walnut.sg/faq/#models-head)

### Which work needs AI?

Matching records, reconciling figures, building reports and exporting use ordinary software and no AI, so the same data always gives the same result.

## [IT, privacy and vendor risk](https://walnut.sg/faq/#it-head)

### Does anything leave our network?

When it is installed on your own premises, nothing is uploaded and nothing connects out. DataBridge is built to be customisable: it is configured to each organisation's environment and needs.

- [What stays inside your environment](https://walnut.sg/security/#network)

### Who sees what?

Each person sees only what their role allows. Your administrators set the roles once, and access follows each person's role from then on.

- [Read the security model](https://walnut.sg/security/#access)

### Can we leave, and take everything?

Export the whole record in standard formats, and we restore it into a fresh system in front of you, so you can see nothing was lost.

- [How you leave with everything](https://walnut.sg/security/#exit)

### What do our reviewers get before installation?
