Partner Program
Grow your business by partnering with us.
Three tracks. Real economics. A platform built on a public API your team can actually integrate against. Whether you’re sending us referrals, deploying for customers, or building software our customers depend on, we’d like to talk.
Real economics
Margin you can build a business on, not a 5% finder's fee that no one bothers to chase.
Honest tiering
Tier moves are gated on customer outcomes, not pipeline promises. Promotions and demotions both happen quarterly.
Built on a real API
Our v1 surface is documented, versioned, and changelogged. No vaporware integrations. What you see in the docs is what you can build today.
A founder you can call
Every partner gets a direct line to leadership. We don't outsource partner success to a CRM workflow.
Three tracks
Pick the one that fits your business
You can be in more than one if it makes sense. Many of our best partners are.
Referral Partners
Consultants, franchise networks, vertical advisors, and operators with a strong network

- 20% revenue share for the first 12 months on any closed pilot
- 10% revenue share on retainer renewals beyond month 12, for the lifetime of the customer
- Co-branded one-pager you can send to your network
- Direct line to the founder for any deal that needs a warm hand-off
- Quarterly partner sync to share what's converting
What we expect
- Make a real introduction with name, role, company, and one sentence about why they need us
- Be available for the first 30-min discovery call if your contact wants you in the room
- Disclose the partner relationship to your contact (we'll never hide it)

Technology Partners
Software vendors with a product our customers rely on (CRMs, vertical SaaS, AI infrastructure, comms providers)

Frequently asked
Partner program FAQ
Can I be in more than one track?
Yes. A boutique agency might be both an implementation partner (deploying the platform for customers) and a referral partner (sending us deals that don't fit their model). We'll structure the agreement so the right economics apply to the right deals.
How fast does payout happen?
Referral partners are paid net-30 after a customer pays their first invoice, and net-30 each month thereafter for the duration of the share window. Implementation partner margin is settled monthly against actual customer billing.
Do you work with international partners?
Yes. Referral and technology tracks are open globally. Implementation partner certification currently requires at least one delivered engagement in North America, but we'll consider waivers for partners with strong vertical depth.
What's the application process?
Apply through the form on this page. We'll respond within five business days with either an intro call invite or a clear no with reasons. Referral track applications are typically reviewed within 48 hours.
