Founding partners program

Founding partners get the next eighteen months at cost.

We are picking ten operators to run with through 2026. Real accounts, real invoices, real cartridges shipping every month. In exchange you get terms no future customer will ever get.

What you get

Terms no future customer will ever get.

i.
Cost-plus pricing for 18 months.

Our supplier price plus a fixed handling fee, locked. No tiered margin, no annual increase, no renegotiation.

ii.
Founder as your account manager.

Every email, every escalation, every quote, Chris signs it. No CSM layer.

iii.
Custom integration with your back office.

We will write the QuickBooks, Coupa, Ariba, or NetSuite integration you need, not the one we want to ship.

iv.
Compliance binder included, no add-on.

Per-location, per-machine, audit-ready, generated automatically. Where applicable: dental, hospital, dialysis, brewery.

v.
Equity-style consideration.

First ten partners get warrants in Aegis Filtration at the seed price. Real paper.

What we ask

Three things, in writing.

i.
A reference call when we ask.

One call per quarter, 20 minutes, with a prospect of our choosing.

ii.
An honest post-mortem at month six.

What we shipped, what we missed, what we should kill.

iii.
A purchase order for at least one location.

Annual filtration spend. Pre-revenue means we need real revenue. The cost-plus pricing makes the math easy.

Ten operators.
Eighteen months at cost.

We do not have a customer logo wall on this page because we do not have ten customers yet. We will not fabricate one. The whole point of the founding partner program is to fix that, with operators who know what they are getting and what we are asking in return.
