8 of 8 Dealer Seats Remaining 4 of 4 Charter Manufacturer Seats Remaining

What a Dealer Founder commits to

  • $99/month — Founder rate frozen for life. Cancel anytime. If you cancel and later return, you return at standard pricing — Founder status does not reactivate.
  • Active use: 1+ design per month, named case study within 90 days.
  • PV-expanding sub-track only: at least one solar thermal install in the ground within 12 months.
  • Testimonial: written quote + 60–90 second video by day 90.
  • Hand-picked. By application, not first-come-first-served.

What a Charter Manufacturer commits to

  • No subscription. Permanent Charter status, in writing, for the life of your participation.
  • Quarterly promotion to your dealer network (campaign, blast, or co-branded asset of your choice).
  • One product training video per year for the Academy (we'll provide the brief and edit).
  • Dealer lead routing to the Revival Directory as the network forms.
  • Named case study within 90 days of being seated.
  • Hand-picked. We select the four manufacturers to balance the cohort.

No length minimum — short and signal-rich beats long and generic.
Short answer is fine — we want signal, not a wish list.
This is the Founding 12 commitment for both tracks. The Revival is a story we're telling together — every Founding partner becomes part of it.

We hand-pick the cohort — by application, not first-come-first-served.
