Is the pilot really free?
Yes. It runs for 30 days at no cost, and there is no deposit.
When does it start?
The next cohort starts in November 2026, and spots are limited.
Who can apply?
Quality teams at life sciences manufacturers, including dietary supplement, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, cosmetics and medical device companies. We confirm fit on the discovery call.
What does my team commit?
One owner on your Quality team, three short working sessions a week, and access to the records and systems Ovada will work in.
What will Ovada work on?
The work you choose on your discovery call: deviation investigations, CAPA follow-through, CoA review or SOP and specification changes.
Which data can Ovada see?
Only the systems and records you connect for the pilot. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is role-based and logged.
What happens to our data after the pilot?
Your records stay exportable on request. How long data is kept after the pilot, and how it may be used, is agreed with you before any records are connected.
Does Ovada replace our QMS?
No. Your QMS stays the system of record for documents, quality events and approvals. Ovada works across it and the other systems you connect, and files drafts for your team to review.
Who signs during the pilot?
Your team. Ovada prepares the work and never signs a regulated decision.
What happens after 30 days?
We review your work record together, and you decide whether to hire Ovada.
Is Ovada software?
Ovada runs on software, and you validate it like any computerized system. The difference is how you use it: you don't operate it like a tool, you assign it work like a member of your Quality team.
Do we need to validate Ovada for the pilot?
No. The pilot is an evaluation, not regulated production use: your team reviews everything Ovada prepares and makes every regulated decision itself. If you hire Ovada after day 30, a validation package is ready for you, with the system description, data-flow diagrams and example test scripts your team can use as the starting point for URS, IQ, OQ and PQ.
Does Ovada support Part 11 and validation?
Ovada captures the signer, date and time, and meaning of each signature, with re-authentication at signing, and keeps a time-stamped record of every user and Ovada action. It is designed to support your Part 11 controls, and validation documentation support is available for your procedures.
