Why partner with us

A platform worth building on.

Access to a differentiated product

AFK Optimus is the only adaptive sanding and polishing platform with closed-loop force control and real-time surface mapping. Your customers get a capability that no competitor can match.

Revenue share and margin

Competitive partner margins, recurring revenue from software subscriptions and consumables, and performance incentives for top-tier partners.

Joint go-to-market

Co-branded collateral, joint trade show presence, and shared lead generation. We invest in our partners' pipelines, not just our own.

Technical enablement

Certified training programmes, a dedicated partner portal, and direct access to our engineering team for complex applications and pre-sales support.

Early access to the roadmap

Partners get early visibility into upcoming capabilities — new end-effectors, substrate support, and AI model updates — so you can plan your pipeline ahead of general availability.

Long-term relationship

We don't recruit partners to hit a number. Every partnership is a long-term commitment — we grow together, and we protect your accounts.

How it works

From conversation to certified partner in four steps.

01

Initial conversation

Tell us about your business, your customers, and the opportunity you see. We'll assess fit and share how the programme works.

02

Partner agreement

We align on territory, margin structure, and commitments. Our agreements are straightforward and designed for long-term relationships.

03

Technical enablement

Your team completes our certification programme — product training, deployment methodology, and hands-on system time.

04

First joint opportunity

We work your first deal together. Our team is on-site for the first deployment to ensure a successful outcome for your customer.
