A single-zone, time-limited pilot in which CORIOLIS ONE runs its allocation engine against your zone's actual stakeholder data and produces a written recommendation: with full reasoning: that you can compare against your current status-quo allocation.
No binding obligations. No public announcements without your permission. No disruption to your existing process. At the end of the pilot, you have a concrete, independently produced allocation recommendation you can evaluate on its own merits.
The engine takes four inputs per stakeholder in a given zone:
The engine runs a constrained optimisation across all stakeholders simultaneously, subject to three hard constraints: total allocation cannot exceed the sustainability ceiling; no party receives below a configurable treaty-floor minimum; no party's allocation moves more than a configurable maximum percentage in a single cycle (preventing destabilising step-changes).
The output is an allocation recommendation per stakeholder, with an explicit per-line explanation for each: not just a number, but a sentence of reasoning per allocation. All algorithm weights are inspectable. The engine has no stake in any outcome.
See it running right now: coriolisone.com/fisheries: the NW Pacific scenario uses real FAO and SPRFMO stock assessment baselines. Adjust any parameter in real time and watch the allocation and reasoning update live.
Reference template: Pilot / Trial Agreement: a short, plain-English scoping document covering data handling, confidentiality, and the non-binding nature of the output. Available on request; we can also work within your organisation's standard NDA if preferred.
Cost for the evaluation pilot: no charge. We are at the proof-of-concept stage and the value of a validated real-world run outweighs any fee we could reasonably charge at this point. If a paid engagement follows the pilot, that is a separate conversation with no obligation.
If your organisation's procurement process requires a formal contract even for a no-cost engagement, the pilot agreement covers the essentials and is deliberately short (under four pages).
Regional Fishery Management Organisations face a structural problem: quota-setting depends on political negotiation among member states who have strong incentives to maximise their individual allocations. Even bodies with strong scientific mandates: ICES, SPRFMO, CCAMLR: produce stock assessments that then get modified in the political negotiation round. The result is allocations that are consistently above scientifically recommended levels across most major zones.
CORIOLIS ONE does not replace RFMO processes. It produces the same kind of output a technical advisory body would: an independently calculated recommendation with documented reasoning: that feeds into the existing process rather than bypassing it. The analogy is Global Fishing Watch for monitoring: a tool that RFMOs and governments actually adopt because it augments their capabilities, not a tool that claims authority it does not have.
The pilot is designed for organisations that have direct involvement in quota-setting or advisory functions for at least one contested fishery zone, have some level of existing data on stakeholder claims, stock health, or compliance history, and are willing to share that data under NDA for a 30-day engagement.
This includes: RFMOs (WCPFC, CCAMLR, NEAFC, SEAFO, etc.); national fisheries ministries and agencies; inter-governmental advisory bodies; conservation NGOs with fisheries mandates (WWF Marine, Oceana, MSC); and academic institutions running fisheries simulation or policy research.
The conversation usually takes about 20 minutes: confirm the zone, confirm data availability, agree NDA terms. We can have a recommendation to you within 30 days of data receipt.
