Become a partner
1. What partnership means
Partnership runs as a working relationship around the substrate, not a sales contract. Partners help SAMRoute mature in directions that matter to their own work. That can mean a new asset family, a new territory, a methodology refinement, or a deployment pattern that survives contact with their internal processes.
In return, partners get early access to what we build, a preferred feedback loop, and acknowledgement when relevant. They also get partner terms (discounts, joint case studies, co-published methodology notes) where the engagement justifies them. The shared objective stays long-term, namely to keep the method consistent as it scales.
2. Five lanes you can join through
Partnership runs open and flexible. Most engagements combine more than one of the five lanes below.
| Lane | What it looks like in practice |
|---|---|
| In-kind support | Compute, expert time, tools, or data access contributed without invoice |
| Co-funding | Shared financing for specific work, including subsidies, grants, structured loans, or equity where relevant |
| Deployment | Using SAMRoute in real contexts and feeding back what works, what doesn't, and what's missing |
| Data access | Providing or validating datasets that broaden the substrate (new territories, new asset families, new reference layers) |
| Expert workshops | Sharing field knowledge, validating analytical assumptions, reviewing outputs against operational reality |
3. Adjacent paths
Two adjacent paths sit alongside partnership, each with its own register.
Standard commercial purchase of the SAMRoute output runs under the Terms of Service as a buyer relationship.
Acknowledgement of past contributions, including from organisations that helped at an early stage, lives on the Acknowledgements page as recognition with stable scope on both sides.
