## The optional pilot program

The primary objective of the [pilot program](https://docs.zenskar.com/docs/what-does-a-zenskar-pilot-program-entail) is to showcase the capabilities of Zenskar: a modern, flexible, no-code billing infrastructure for your business. However, the **pilot program is optional** if you have already chosen Zenskar as the billing infrastructure for your business.
