For Enterprise & Mid-Market Buyers

Procure delivery partners with audit-ready credentials

  • Request introductions with zero cold sales harassment through double opt-in consent routing.
  • Evaluate delivery track records with timestamped project evidence from Catalyst deal registers.

What opens up

Four doors, and who they open for

The partner you have not met

Buyers and vendors find each other by capability, vertical and coverage.

Buyers and vendors

The deal that went quiet

A claimed profile starts onboarding, then the deal moves to Catalyst.

Resellers and MSPs

The budget nobody tracked

Program terms and MDF attach to the listing, so the spend is visible.

Partner ops

The payout nobody trusts

Every registered deal carries a timestamp into the payout.

Give autonomous AI agents access to verifiable ecosystem data

partner.directory is built with native MCP tools so procurement agents and enterprise copilots can query certified resellers, inspect compliance verifications, and submit structured introduction briefs with explicit source URLs.

TypeScript Agent Implementation
// Autonomous AI Agent shortlisting via partner.directory MCP
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js";

const client = new Client({ name: "procurement-agent", version: "1.0.0" });
await client.connect(transport);

const result = await client.callTool({
  name: "search_partners",
  arguments: {
    industry: "Healthcare & Life Sciences",
    certification: "HIPAA",
    country: "US",
    type: "Msp",
    limit: 3
  }
});

console.log(result.content[0].text);
// Returns: NovaCare Health Systems (HITRUST CSF, Epic Systems App Orchard)
