TangoEra Institutional Program

A scoped institutional engagement for funds, family offices and multi-team organisations that need the decision architecture of a mandate or a leadership group to be written down, rule-based and auditable — not inferred from a personality survey.

Built for a diligence process, not a pitch

Institutional buyers do not get to evaluate a black box. Everything that determines an output is published first:

• The input vector. A fixed temporal-geographic coordinate set — no survey, no self-report, no mood-dependent questionnaire.
• The output contract. A 7-dimensional decision vector with a declared observed score band, plus bias, heatmap, percentile, action, explanation and monthly components.
• The determinism claim. Identical input yields identical output. This is stated as a property of the pipeline, not as an accuracy claim.
• The boundary. An explicit epistemic section on what the method does not do, including why it is a correlation baseline rather than a forecaster.
• The failure modes. Engineering tolerances, boundary conditions, fallback protocols and birth-time precision handling are all in the specification.
• The audit standard. A 48-hour rule re-derivation covenant: if a conclusion cannot be re-derived from the published rules, the corresponding fee is refunded.

The full document is public at tangoera.com/method, and it is meant to be read before a first call rather than after.

Engagement shape

Stage	What happens
1. Application	The intake below, plus (optionally) a request for a mutual NDA before any specifics are exchanged.
2. Diligence pack	On request we send a written pack: the method specification, the boundary and limitations section, the audit standard, and the operational and data-handling terms.
3. Fit review	We confirm whether the mandate is a fit for the method. We say no when it is not.
4. Scoping	Scope is fixed with your team: which decision structures, which deliverables, which timeline, which fee.
5. Engagement letter	All of the above is written and signed before payment. No payment is collected on this page or at application.
6. Delivery and audit	Delivery against the letter, with the 48-hour rule re-derivation covenant attached to every conclusion.

Data handling and confidentiality

• Contact details from this form are used to assess fit and reply. They are not sold or shared. See the privacy policy.
• We will execute a mutual NDA before receiving confidential mandate information.
• Birth data, where it is part of an engagement, is used only to produce the deliverable and is covered by the site's birth-data deletion route.

Frequently asked

Is $49,800 the final fee?

It is the entry point of this tier. The final fee is a function of scope, and scope is agreed in writing before payment. A smaller mandate is a smaller fee, and we will say so rather than inflate a scope to reach this figure.

What exactly is delivered?

It is specified in your engagement letter, and we deliberately do not describe deliverables here that have not been scoped with you. What is fixed and public in advance is the method, the boundary conditions and the 48-hour audit covenant.

Why is the method document public if this tier is expensive?

Because the expensive part is not the secret — it is the application, the scoping, the written record and the audit obligation. Publishing the method is what lets you diligence us instead of trusting us.

Will you sign a mutual NDA and a DPA?

Yes to a mutual NDA. Data-processing terms are set out in the engagement letter; tell us your requirements in the application and we will confirm before scoping.

Do you have institutional references?

No, and we will not fabricate them. We are a new practice. The material you can actually verify is the method specification and the methodology and limitations disclosure.

Is there a lower-commitment way to evaluate the method?

Yes. The free 90-second check needs no email, and the sample report shows the structure of a paid deliverable. For a smaller organisational scope, the Advisory & Due Diligence engagement (from $4,800) is the correct entry point.

TangoEra is a self-reflection and decision-support practice, not a diagnosis or a prediction. Institutional work describes baseline decision architecture and does not forecast future events, market behaviour or investment outcomes. Nothing on this page is financial, legal, medical, tax or investment advice.
