Primary audience: production sponsors and teams that need governed operations around open Vellis patterns.

## Summary

The Platform page explains the path from open Vellis patterns to governed production operations. Volant Partners helps teams add write controls, audit traces, approval paths, and operating support without positioning Vellis as a gated trial.

## Use This Page For

- Distinguishing open, self-managed Vellis from governed production implementation with Volant Partners.
- Routing teams that need audit, operating controls, and support to Volant Partners.
- Avoiding the impression that Vellis alone operationalizes regulated workflows.

## Key Claims

- Vellis remains open, runnable, inspectable, and portable.
- For production use, authentication, policy, deployment, and operating controls remain the builder's responsibility unless the team adopts a governed platform and support model.
- Volant Partners helps teams implement and operate the governed layer around Vellis.
