OpenPartner
The open-source partner platform for brands and creators
OpenPartner helps brands launch affiliate, referral, and creator partner programs with built-in partner discovery, visible commission terms, and direct Stripe payouts. Brands get partner program software and a marketplace for recruiting. Creators get real offers and keep what they earn.
Hello fellow hunters! I built OpenPartner to help promote the various SaaS products I'm building and hopefully help others builders as well.
- https://getcoherence.io - An AI-Native XRM/CRM
- https://studio.getcohernece.io - A screen recorder and AI video generator to help create SaaS teaser/explainer videos along with really any motion graphic videos.
- and now https://openpartner.dev
I’ve been trying to get better at distribution lately, especially around affiliate and referral programs for the products.
The rabbit hole started when I came across efficient app on YouTube. They’re a husband-and-wife team reviewing B2B software, and I noticed their business model seems to rely heavily on partner/affiliate relationships with the tools they recommend.
That led me to look into the software and networks behind these programs. I found Dub, signed up, and realized their partner network is only available on enterprise plans. Their regular plan still starts around $80/month plus a percentage of revenue, but you’re mostly bringing your own partners. I also looked at PartnerStack, which seems powerful but is even more expensive.
That made me think there’s room for something different: a more open and flexible partner network with modern attribution tracking, but without enterprise-only access or heavy pricing gates.
So I built and launched OpenPartner as an open-source partner platform with a built-in network this week.
The goal is to help brands create affiliate/referral programs and give creators/partners an easier way to discover programs they can promote.
It’s still very early, so I’m building in public and trying to learn from both sides:
- founders/companies that want partner-led distribution
- affiliates/creators/consultants that want good programs to promote
- people who’ve used tools like PartnerStack, Rewardful, FirstPromoter, Dub, etc.
Right now I’m especially thinking through:
- how open the network should be
- what attribution features matter most early on
- how to keep pricing flexible
- how to make program discovery actually useful
- what partners need before they trust a new network
Would love feedback from anyone who has built or used affiliate/referral programs. What would you want from a new partner network?
