    Partners

    Your relationships.
    Our platform.
    A new revenue line.

    You already have the trust of the plants we want to reach. Introduce them to Visual Factories and get paid for it — a fee for every qualified lead and a bonus when it converts. Or go further and resell. Either way, your customers get a proven improvement tool from someone they already trust, you get your share, and you are seen as the innovator who brought them more added value.

    Cutting-Tool Distributors

    Lead with
    Cutting Tools Tool Life Monitoring

    Tool-life monitoring on the tools you sell: cost per part, alerts before end of life, usage data for the next order.

    Machine Resellers

    Lead with
    OEE Improvement · Maintenance

    Every machine you sell arrives connected: OEE from day one, condition-based maintenance, and a service relationship that lasts.

    Injection Molding Machine Resellers & Mold Makers

    Lead with
    Molds Tracking & Monitoring

    Every mold located, every shot counted, tool life from the machine counter — a service that keeps the account.

    CAD/CAM Resellers & CNC Machine Resellers

    Lead with
    CNC Programs

    Program upload and download with traceability stamps and revisions — next to the software and the machines you already sell.

    ERP Resellers & Integrators

    Lead with
    Scheduling · OEE Improvement · Supply Chain

    Live machine data into the ERP: the scheduling board, OEE, and supply-chain visibility for your customers' OEMs.

    CMMS Resellers

    Lead with
    Maintenance

    The condition side of maintenance — MTBF/MTTR, stop reasons, wear-part counts — feeding the CMMS you sell.

    The channel model

    Two ways in. Start light, go deep when you are ready.

    Referral is the simple option: you open the door, we do the selling, you get paid per stage. Reseller / VAR is for partners who want the account: we train you, you own the deal, and you get exclusivity on the accounts you register.

    Option A · Referral partner
    Pay per lead

    Open the door. We do the rest.

    Register a plant contact you know. We qualify it, run the introduction and the meeting, and you are paid a fixed fee at each stage — plus a bonus if the plant becomes a POC, and again when it becomes a customer.

    • Fixed fee per stage: contact details → introduction → scheduled meeting
    • Bonus on POC, bonus on customer — no cap, no quota
    • Nothing to sell, install or support — we run the 14-day activation
    • Lead registration protects your introduction
    Best for: distributors, resellers and integrators who talk to plant managers every week and want a new income line without a new product to learn.
    Option B · Reseller / VAR
    Own the account

    Sell it, service it, keep the account.

    You resell Visual Factories to your customers as part of your offer. We train your sales and technical people, give you a demo environment, and grant you exclusivity on the accounts you register.

    • Partner training for sales and technical staff
    • Exclusivity per registered account
    • Joint POCs on your first plants; the activation sprint run with you
    • Bundle it with what you sell: machines, tools, software, service contracts
    Best for: partners with a technical team and a service relationship — machine dealers, integrators, software resellers who want a recurring line.

    Machine resellers: ship every new machine connected.

    Partners who sell new CNC machines, injection-molding machines or presses get Visual Factories licences for those machines free — the machine arrives monitored, and the plant sees its OEE from day one.

    Why your customers say yes

    The easiest introduction you will make this year.

    You are not asking your customer to buy a project. You are introducing a system that connects in days, proves itself on their own machines within weeks, and costs them nothing to try. That is why partners keep their credibility — and why the plant says yes.

    01

    No IT project at the plant

    An IoT device on the machine's electrical signals, installed by the plant electrician in under an hour; the Universal Adapter in the cloud does the rest. Any machine, any age, any control.

    02

    Results on their own numbers

    OEE, uptime, output, overtime — measured from the machine within two weeks. A Tier-1 automotive plant lifted output 23% and OEE from 59% to 75% in eight months.

    03

    Nothing to lose

    14-day Activation Sprint with a money-back SLA, or a free POC first. The plant decides on proof; you are never the one asking for faith.

    You bring the introduction. We bring the proof. Your customer keeps the gain.
    How the referral works

    Paid at every stage. Bonus on top when it converts.

    Three fixed fees, each earned and paid whether or not the next stage happens — then two bonuses on top of everything already paid.

    FEE 1 · PAID
    01 · Register
    Contact details

    Plant, contact, role. Once we accept the lead, fee 1 is yours. If we already know the contact, we tell you within one business day.

    +
    FEE 2 · PAID
    02 · Introduce
    Warm introduction

    An email or a call from you: "you should talk to these people." When the contact confirms, fee 2 is paid.

    +
    FEE 3 · PAID
    03 · Meet
    Meeting held

    We run the 30-minute meeting with the plant, your name on the invitation if you want it. When it is held, fee 3 is paid.

    +
    BONUS · ON TOP
    04 · POC
    Plant starts a POC

    The plant runs a POC or the 14-day sprint. You get a bonus — on top of the three fees already paid.

    Proven on the floor

    The product sells itself once it is connected.

    Managers see their own losses on their own machines within two weeks — which is why an introduction from someone they trust is usually all it takes.

    Try it now

    Register your first lead. Get paid if it qualifies.

    No agreement to sign first, no quota. Send us one plant contact you know. If we accept it, fee 1 is paid within 30 days against your invoice — and the introduction and meeting fees follow as the lead moves.

    Your lead is protected from the moment you register it. We never ask for bank details on the website — payment details are exchanged after acceptance, with the partner agreement. Prefer to resell? Use the second tab.

      About you

      The lead
