# Overview

> How evaluation, onboarding, and long-term support work

This guide explains the path from first evaluation to production use of the Subconscious Inference System.

## Typical phases

* **[Evaluation](/on-prem/integration-journey/evaluation)**: Align on use cases, security posture, ROI, expected usage, and proof points.
  * **Timeline**: 2-4 weeks.
  * **Ceremonies**: 2-4 meetings.
* **[Onboarding](/on-prem/integration-journey/onboarding)**: Plan deployment, stand up the Subconscious Inference System, configure the API Gateway, and connect pilot users.
  * **Timeline**: 1-2 weeks.
  * **Ceremonies**: kickoff, deployment planning, deployment/setup, team training, and handoff.
* **[Customer success](/on-prem/integration-journey/customer-success)**: Keep the support channel open for upgrades, patches, performance reviews, and rollout guidance.
