SQOR Partner ProgramBring your clients the AI they can't get anywhere else.
Your clients pay for dashboards, data teams and AI that guesses, and they still can't trust their numbers. Bring them SQOR.ai, and you're the advisor who fixed it.
- Every number to the penny, the same answer every time.
- No dashboards to build, no SQL, no data team to staff.
- 10 times the signal from their data, at a tenth of the cost.
- Live in 2 to 4 weeks, with ROI guaranteed.
ROI guarantee is based on retiring obsolete business intelligence, analytics, and data construction headcount or software spend.
Free to join. Open to advisory firms everywhere.
SQOR.ai was named by Gartner in the 2026 Hype Cycle for Data Science and Machine Learning, in a category they rate Transformational.*
Sold on Google Cloud Marketplace, so clients can buy it against Google Cloud spend they have already committed.
One operator is retiring 250 dashboard licenses with SQOR.ai.
Your clients can do half your job with a chatbot now.
You feel it in every pitch. Clients paste their questions into ChatGPT and Claude and get answers in seconds. Deals take longer to close, and hours that used to bill are harder to defend.
You can't out-work AI. You can bring your clients the AI that does what theirs can't, and get paid for it.
You can't run a business on probably.
Chatbots guess. Ask the same question twice and you can get 2 different numbers. That's fine for an email. For revenue, margin or cash, it's a disaster.
SQOR.ai is Vibe Analytics: an autonomous intelligence that lets you ask your data in plain English and get trusted, deterministic answers in seconds, all without the infrastructure or the armies of data experts that business intelligence requires today.
Fully deterministic. The same question, the same number, every time.
Every number is computed from the company's own systems and matched to its books, to the penny. Ask 100 times, in any words, and you get the same answer. The AI explains the number. It never makes it up.
Fully autonomous. No dashboards, no SQL, no team to feed it.
SQOR.ai connects to the systems a company already runs, tracks every measure, explains what moved it, and recommends what to do next. Nobody on the client's side builds anything.
Dashboards need people. Chat tools guess. SQOR.ai needs no team to run it and never guesses. Nobody else offers both.
10 times the signal from their data, at a tenth of the cost.
Companies spend millions a year just to see their own business: licenses, warehouses, pipelines, outside consultants, and the people who build reports. SQOR.ai does that work, so the money goes back to EBITDA.
| Company revenue | Data and reporting staff | Spent today, per year | Returned to EBITDA, per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| $25M to $250M | 3 to 8 people | $0.8M to $2.3M | $0.7M to $2.2M |
| $250M to $500M | 8 to 15 people | $2.0M to $4.4M | $1.8M to $4.2M |
| $500M to $1B | 15 to 35 people | $3.6M to $9.6M | $3.2M to $9.1M |
| $1B to $2.5B | 35 to 80 people | $9.1M to $23.2M | $8.2M to $22.0M |
ROI guaranteed. The guarantee is based on retiring obsolete business intelligence, analytics, and data construction headcount or software spend.
Illustrative. Staff are the people who build, maintain, and check reports, at $180,000 fully loaded each, based on 2025 U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics median pay for data scientists and database architects. "Spent today" adds dashboard licenses, the warehouse, data pipelines, and outside consultants. "Returned to EBITDA" is that spend less SQOR.ai's annual cost, which typically runs 5 to 10% of it. Each client's own numbers replace these in its Proof of Value.

Questions about the SQOR Partner Program
Last updated: November 2026
About the program
What is the SQOR Partner Program?
The SQOR Partner Program pays consultants, agencies, and accountants for bringing clients to SQOR.ai, an autonomous business intelligence platform. A referral earns 10% of the client's first-year subscription. A partner who stays in and leads the client earns 20% of the Proof of Value and every subscription payment for 3 years, and 30% from their 6th partner client each year.
What is SQOR.ai?
SQOR.ai is Vibe Analytics: an autonomous intelligence that lets you ask your data in plain English and get trusted, deterministic answers in seconds, all without the infrastructure or the armies of data experts that business intelligence requires today. SQOR.ai was named by Gartner in the 2026 Hype Cycle for Data Science and Machine Learning, in a category they rate Transformational.
What is the difference between referring and partnering?
A referral is an introduction. You connect the client with SQOR.ai, step away, and earn 10% of the first-year subscription once. A partner stays in: you lead the client relationship, work with our team in a shared Slack channel and regular meetings, and grow the account, and you earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
What is a partner of record?
A partner of record is the firm that both the client and SQOR.ai treat as the client's lead contact. In the SQOR Partner Program, staying the partner of record is what earns the recurring commission of 20% to 30% for 3 years, instead of the one-time 10% referral fee.
Who can join the SQOR Partner Program?
Any advisory firm with at least 1 active paying client can apply, wherever it is based. That includes data and analytics consultants, Tableau, Power BI, HubSpot, and Salesforce firms, management and private equity operations consultants, fractional executives, marketing and website agencies, accounting firms, business coaches, and investment bankers.
Is there a minimum number of clients to apply?
Just 1. Any advisory firm with at least 1 active paying client can apply to the SQOR Partner Program, and firms with 1 or 2 clients are welcome. Joining is free, and SQOR.ai reviews every application, and a member of the SQOR team will reach out shortly.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. Joining the SQOR Partner Program is free. Firms apply online in about 2 minutes with a company email, and SQOR.ai reviews every application, and a member of the SQOR team will reach out shortly.
Is the SQOR Partner Program open outside the US and Canada?
Yes. The SQOR Partner Program gives priority to advisory firms in the United States and Canada, and it considers applications from firms anywhere in the world.
How do I apply to the SQOR Partner Program?
Apply on this page in about 2 minutes. The form asks for your name, work email, firm, website or LinkedIn page, how many paying clients you have, and the services you offer. A company email is needed, and SQOR.ai reviews every application, and a member of the SQOR team will reach out shortly.
What happens after I apply?
If your firm is a fit, SQOR.ai sends the partner agreement and sets up a short call. Then you introduce your first client, and SQOR.ai's team runs the Proof of Value with you while you lead the relationship. You can also book a call with SQOR.ai before you apply.
What support do SQOR.ai partners get?
Every partner gets a named SQOR.ai contact, client-ready materials, the due diligence checklist for client handoffs, and a shared Slack channel with regular meetings with SQOR.ai's team. Premier Partners can also be listed in the SQOR.ai partner directory, and are first in line when SQOR.ai invites partners to market with it.
What partners earn
How much do SQOR.ai partners earn?
Partners earn 20% of the Proof of Value fee and every subscription payment for 3 years on their first 5 partner clients each year, and 30% from the 6th. SQOR.ai engagements run $50K to $900K a year, and the share grows as the client does.
How much is the SQOR.ai referral fee?
A referral earns 10% of the client's first-year subscription, paid once, within 15 days of the client's payment clearing. Any firm in the program can refer a client and step away.
How long are partners paid?
Partners earn on the Proof of Value fee when the client pays it, and on the subscription for 3 years from the client's launch, for as long as they stay in the SQOR Partner Program. A referral is paid once, on the client's first-year subscription.
When do SQOR.ai partners get paid?
Partners are paid within 15 days of each client payment clearing SQOR.ai's bank account. Clients usually go live in 2 to 4 weeks, so a first payout can arrive within weeks of an introduction.
How do partners reach the 30% Premier Partner rate?
Partners reach 30% with their 6th partner client in a calendar year. The first 5 partner clients each year earn 20%, and every partner client from the 6th on earns 30%, each for 3 years. Client counts reset each January.
How much can a partner earn from 10 clients a year?
It depends on the size of each engagement, and SQOR.ai engagements run $50K to $900K a year. The first 5 partner clients each year earn 20% and every one after that earns 30%, each for 3 years, so every new year of clients adds to the last.
Do partners earn more when a client grows?
Yes. Partners earn on the Proof of Value and every subscription payment for 3 years, including growth, so a partner's share rises as the client adds teams, locations and use cases. Finding the next team, location, or use case is part of a partner's role.
Do partners earn on the Proof of Value fee?
Yes. Partners earn 20% to 30% of the Proof of Value fee as well as every subscription payment for 3 years. A referral earns 10% of the first-year subscription only. The earnings examples on this page cover the subscription alone.
The partner's role
What does a partner do after the client signs?
The partner stays the client's lead contact. That means keeping the Proof of Value on schedule with SQOR.ai's due diligence checklist, meeting regularly with our team, and finding the next team, location, or use case. SQOR.ai's delivery team does all of the technical work, and partners never touch client data or systems.
Do SQOR.ai partners need technical skills?
No. SQOR.ai's delivery team connects the client's systems, builds every measure, runs the Proof of Value, and supports the platform. Partners lead the relationship: they keep the client's team and SQOR.ai's in step, keep the work moving, and find the next use case. Partners never touch client data or systems.
Can partners charge clients for their own services?
Yes. Clients pay SQOR.ai's list price for the Proof of Value and the subscription, and partners never charge more for either. Anything else partners do for their clients, such as data cleanup, due diligence preparation, training, or consulting, they price however they like.
Can partners resell SQOR.ai?
No. Clients sign with SQOR.ai and pay SQOR.ai directly at its list price, and the partner earns a commission from SQOR.ai. Partners never charge more than SQOR.ai's price for the Proof of Value or the subscription, and they price their own services however they like.
Do partners have to disclose their commission to clients?
Where the law or their professional rules require it, yes. Partners then tell clients that they receive a share of SQOR.ai revenue for the clients they introduce. Accountants also follow AICPA and state board rules on commissions, which bar them for clients the firm audits or reviews.
How do I introduce a client to SQOR.ai?
Tell SQOR.ai who the client is and what they want to know, then set up the first meeting and join it with SQOR.ai's team. The client signs a Proof of Value scoped to 1 use case and goes live in 2 to 4 weeks, while you lead the relationship.
Revenue for consultants and agencies
How can a consulting firm replace revenue lost to AI?
Add a product that pays recurring revenue and does work AI chatbots can't. Hourly billing is under pressure: as Kennedy Intelligence's Tom Rodenhauser told , "You charge for time, and when time goes away, you have to change the commercial model." The SQOR Partner Program pays partners 20% to 30% of the Proof of Value and every subscription payment for 3 years.
What should a HubSpot or Salesforce partner agency sell when clients cut software spend?
Sell something that saves the client money instead of adding another tool. Many agencies made payroll on software partner income, and clients now ask AI whether they need the software at all. SQOR.ai lets clients retire BI tools and data spend with guaranteed ROI, and pays the agency that stays in as partner 20% to 30%.
What are the best referral programs for BI and data consultants?
The best ones pay recurring revenue and handle the technical work themselves. Enterprise software referral fees are typically about 10% of the first year only, according to the . The SQOR Partner Program pays 10% for a referral, and 20% to 30% for 3 years to partners who stay in.
How can a Tableau or Power BI consultant earn recurring revenue?
Bring clients a platform that pays a share of every payment. Tableau and Power BI need ongoing SQL writing and report building, and clients increasingly question that cost. SQOR.ai connects to the same data, answers in plain English, and pays partners 20% to 30% for 3 years. One operator is retiring 250 dashboard licenses with SQOR.ai.
How do AI consultants deliver measurable ROI to clients?
Tie the AI to the client's own numbers and a cost outcome they can verify. MIT research reported by Fortune in 2025 found 95% of corporate generative AI pilots show no measurable profit impact. SQOR.ai computes every number from the company's own systems and guarantees ROI when obsolete BI tools and roles are retired.
Which AI software companies pay consultants a referral commission?
Many do, on very different terms. Most SaaS affiliate programs pay 20% to 30%, often for only the first 12 months. SQOR.ai pays 10% for a referral, and partners who stay in earn 20% on their first 5 clients each year and 30% after that, for 3 years, within 15 days of each client payment.
How can accountants and fractional CFOs add revenue from analytics?
Recommend a platform that cuts the client's reporting cost and pays a revenue share. Accountants already see what clients spend on BI tools, data staff, and consultants. SQOR.ai gives clients plain-English answers on their own numbers with guaranteed ROI, and pays the firm 10% for a referral or 20% to 30% as a partner, within AICPA and state board rules.
How can marketing agencies and business coaches add recurring revenue?
Bring clients a product that pays you for 3 years. Marketing, lead-gen, and website agencies and business coaches already advise companies that run on their numbers. SQOR.ai gives those companies answers matched to their books, and pays a partner 20% to 30% of the Proof of Value and every subscription payment for 3 years.
How can management and private equity operations consultants use SQOR.ai?
Use it to show every number a company runs on, every morning. Management and private equity operations consultants are paid to improve results, and SQOR.ai computes each measure from the company's own systems, explains what moved it, and recommends the next move. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
Can accountants and CPAs join the SQOR Partner Program?
Yes, within professional rules. AICPA rules bar a CPA from taking a referral fee for a client the firm audits or reviews, and some state boards add their own limits. Accounting firms can refer non-attest clients and must disclose the revenue share to each client in writing.
For partners of Tableau, Power BI, Snowflake, Databricks and other tools
How do I bring SQOR.ai to clients I implemented software for?
Start with the clients you already built for. They trust you, you know their data, and SQOR.ai connects read-only to the systems you set up, so nothing you built is thrown away. You go back with the answers those systems were bought to deliver, and you earn 20% to 30% for 3 years as a partner.
I implement Tableau or Power BI. What can I bring my clients next?
Bring them the answers their dashboards were bought for. SQOR.ai answers plain-English questions with figures matched to the client's books, runs beside Tableau or Power BI until they're retired, and can carry over the calculations in existing Tableau workbooks. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
I implement Snowflake or Databricks. Is SQOR.ai a competitor?
No. Snowflake and Databricks hold and process the data, and SQOR.ai sits above them and delivers the answers, connecting read-only to the warehouse you built. Your clients get plain-English answers from that investment, and you earn 20% to 30% for 3 years as a partner.
I'm a Fivetran or Matillion consultant. What do my clients get from SQOR.ai?
They get the answers their pipelines were built to feed. SQOR.ai connects read-only to the same systems and turns the data into answers matched to the books, with the cause, the forecast, and a recommended action. See SQOR.ai vs Fivetran and SQOR.ai vs Matillion. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
I'm a Qlik, Sigma, Domo, ThoughtSpot or Tellius partner. What do I tell clients who want AI?
Tell them the next step is the answer itself. Those tools give a team apps, workbooks, dashboards, or a model to build and maintain. SQOR.ai builds the model from the company's own systems and computes the answer, matched to its books, with the cause, the forecast, and a recommended action. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
Pyramid Analytics was acquired. What do I offer my clients?
ServiceNow closed its acquisition of Pyramid Analytics in March 2026 and plans to build it into its own workflows. For clients who bought Pyramid for business analytics, SQOR.ai answers questions across the whole business, matched to the books. See SQOR.ai vs Pyramid. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
I'm an Alteryx, Dataiku or Palantir consultant. Where does SQOR.ai fit?
It gives business users answers without a specialist team. Alteryx and Dataiku give trained teams workflows and projects to build, and Palantir embeds its engineers to build a bespoke system. SQOR.ai deploys no one: it connects read-only and delivers the answer to anyone who can type a question. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
I'm an SAP, DataRails or Baremetrics consultant. Can SQOR.ai help my clients?
Yes, when their questions go beyond planning or subscription metrics. SQOR.ai connects read-only to SAP and the rest of a company's systems, computes every metric matched to its books, and answers questions across the whole business. See SQOR.ai vs SAP Analytics Cloud. Partners earn 20% to 30% for 3 years.
What clients get
Why can't clients just use ChatGPT for their numbers?
Because a chatbot guesses. A language model can return 2 different numbers to the same question, which is fine for an email and a disaster for revenue, margin, or cash. SQOR.ai computes every figure from the company's own systems, matches it to the books, and the AI only explains it.
What is a Proof of Value?
A Proof of Value is SQOR.ai's first engagement with a client: priced up front, scoped to 1 use case, and run on the client's own data. First answers usually arrive within 2 weeks, and the client is live in 2 to 4 weeks. Partners earn on the Proof of Value fee.
How long does it take a client to go live on SQOR.ai?
Clients have their own data live in SQOR.ai within 2 to 4 weeks. SQOR.ai connects read-only to the systems a company already runs, including Snowflake, Databricks, Salesforce, and most ERPs, so there's no warehouse to build. Operators are usually testing on their own data within 2 weeks.
What does SQOR.ai cost a client?
SQOR.ai engagements typically run $50K to $900K a year. Pricing is based on usage, with unlimited seats and the data warehouse included.
Can clients buy SQOR.ai through Google Cloud Marketplace?
Yes. SQOR.ai is sold on Google Cloud Marketplace, so clients can buy it against Google Cloud spend they have already committed, with no new budget line and no new procurement cycle.
What is the SQOR.ai ROI guarantee?
SQOR.ai guarantees ROI for clients that retire obsolete business intelligence, analytics, and data construction headcount or software spend. Companies with $25 million to $2.5 billion in revenue typically spend $0.8 million to $23 million a year on data and reporting. SQOR.ai costs about 5 to 10% of that, so most of the spend returns to EBITDA.
Is client data secure with SQOR.ai?
SQOR.ai connects read-only to the systems a company already runs, so it reads the data without changing it, and partners never touch client data or systems. The security details are on SQOR.ai's trust and security page.
The category
What is Vibe Analytics?
Vibe Analytics is a category of business intelligence where anyone asks questions of company data in plain English. SQOR.ai is Vibe Analytics: an autonomous intelligence that lets you ask your data in plain English and get trusted, deterministic answers in seconds, all without the infrastructure or the armies of data experts that business intelligence requires today.
What is autonomous business intelligence (ABI)?
Autonomous business intelligence is BI that runs itself. It connects to a company's systems, computes the metrics, explains why they moved, and recommends what to do, with no analysts building reports. SQOR.ai was named by Gartner in the 2026 Hype Cycle for Data Science and Machine Learning, in a category they rate Transformational.
Is there an alternative to Tableau and Power BI that doesn't need analysts?
Yes. SQOR.ai connects read-only to a company's existing systems and answers questions in plain English, with no dashboards to build and no SQL to write. It includes the data warehouse, goes live in 2 to 4 weeks, and costs about 5 to 10% of a typical BI budget. It can run beside Tableau or Power BI until they're retired.
What is deterministic AI analytics?
Deterministic AI analytics means the same question always returns the same number. In SQOR.ai, a machine learning engine computes every figure and matches it to the source records, and the language model only explains the result. When a number can't be matched to its source, SQOR.ai holds it back instead of guessing.
Has Gartner recognized SQOR.ai?
Yes. SQOR.ai was named by Gartner in the 2026 Hype Cycle for Data Science and Machine Learning, in a category they rate Transformational. SQOR.ai also appears in the July 2026 Hype Cycle for Analytics and Business Intelligence. Gartner does not endorse any vendor.
How does SQOR.ai compare with ThoughtSpot and Domo?
ThoughtSpot grounds answers in a semantic model a team builds and maintains, and Domo gives a dashboard estate a team assembles. SQOR.ai computes the answer itself from the company's own systems, matched to its books, with the cause, the forecast, and a recommended action. See SQOR.ai vs ThoughtSpot and SQOR.ai vs Domo.
