Partner Center
Refer customers and earn recurring commission, deliver your own grant and proposal consulting on Clariva and keep the majority of what you bill, or do both under one partner account.
Apply to Become a Partner →Every application picks one of three tracks. Approved partners keep working the same way going forward — there's no automatic upgrade or downgrade between tracks.
Send us customers. We handle delivery. You earn recurring commission.
Best for consultants, advisors, association leaders, and anyone with a network of organizations that need grant software — but no interest in doing the proposal work yourself.
Deliver grant and proposal services to your own clients, on Clariva.
Best for grant writers, consultants, and firms who already deliver proposal or grant-management services and want a platform, billing, and back office built for that work.
Do both under one Clariva partner account.
Best for firms and consultants who want maximum flexibility — refer the leads that make sense to hand off, and deliver the engagements you'd rather run yourself.
Referral Partner
Commission is calculated on qualifying net base subscription revenue only — the customer's Clariva plan fee, not usage or add-ons.
Not commissionable:
Referral Partner
Deal registration is required, and the approved commissionable subscription value may be set by Clariva administration rather than the sticker price.
Commission follows the customer's new qualifying subscription value — upgrading does not restart your 36-month commission clock.
Commission stops when qualifying subscription revenue stops. Reactivation follows standard program policy.
Consulting Partner
The split below isn't a platform-access fee — it's what replaces the back office you'd otherwise have to build, staff, or buy separately: contract drafting, invoicing, revenue reconciliation, and client tracking, all handled for you.
Five formation documents — Statement of Work, Scope of Work (5-Stage Lifecycle), Service Scope Definition, Grant Writing Services Proposal, and Proposal Writing Services Contract — drafted by AI from your engagement details in seconds, not hours. Edit in place, save as a new version, or regenerate — every draft is yours to review before it reaches a client.
No manual invoicing. Once your client accepts the Services Contract, their invoice is generated and billed automatically through your connected Stripe account — the same infrastructure, without the back-office overhead of building or licensing it yourself.
The moment your client's invoice is paid, your revenue-share settlement is calculated and recorded automatically — no spreadsheets, no manual reconciliation, no waiting on an end-of-month close.
Track every engagement's status, documents, and fee proposals in one place, with a per-client lifecycle funnel showing exactly where each customer stands from proposal development through post-award reporting.
AI Grant Finder, AI Grant Scholar, proposal generation, budget building, and reviewer simulation — the full platform your clients would otherwise need to buy separately, available to you as the one delivering the work.
Share a larger engagement with another approved Consulting Partner, with revenue allocation and customer-protection safeguards handled by the platform — not an informal side agreement.
Consulting Partner
Consulting Partners bill their own clients directly through Clariva's built-in Stripe Connect billing. Each calendar month, you keep a progressively larger share of what you actually collect as your volume grows.
The split is progressive — each band applies only to the portion of that month's collected fees within it, the same way a tax bracket works. Bands reset each calendar month based on your actual collected revenue.
Monthly minimum, not a monthly minimum plus revenue share
Every Consulting Partner is assigned a usage tier based on active customers and active proposals. Each month, you owe Clariva whichever is greater — your tier's flat minimum, or your calculated revenue share. You never pay both.
Tier 250 — $250/mo/mo minimum
Up to 5 active customers / 5 active proposals
Tier 500 — $500/mo/mo minimum
Up to 10 active customers / 15 active proposals
Tier 750 — $750/mo/mo minimum
Up to 20 active customers / 30 active proposals
Custom — Set per agreement/mo minimum
Larger firms — negotiated with Clariva
Working on a larger engagement with another firm? Approved Consulting Partners can collaborate on a shared engagement, with revenue allocation and customer-protection safeguards built into the platform.
Referral Partner
As your attributed revenue and tenure grow, your status advances — unlocking additional benefits and enablement. Status does not change your standard commission schedule above.

info@nanoresearchinc.usWhich track should I apply for?
If you have a network of organizations that need grant software but you don't want to do the proposal work yourself, choose Referral Partner. If you already deliver grant-writing or proposal consulting services and want a platform plus billing built for that work, choose Consulting Partner. If you want both — refer some customers and directly service others — choose Referral + Consulting. You can only select one track at application time; there's no automatic upgrade between tracks later.
[Referral] What revenue actually counts toward my commission?
Qualifying net base subscription revenue only — the platform/plan fee a customer you attributed pays. AI usage and credit top-ups, Managed Data capacity, additional seats, Marketplace purchases, implementation and professional services, custom development, taxes, refunds, credits, and chargebacks are all excluded from the standard commission calculation.
[Referral] How does the recurring commission schedule work?
20% of qualifying subscription revenue for months 1–12 of a customer's subscription, 15% for months 13–24, 10% for months 25–36, and the standard rate drops to 0% from month 37 onward. This is a single unified schedule for every Referral Partner.
[Referral] What happens if my customer upgrades their plan?
Your commission follows the new, higher qualifying subscription value going forward. Upgrading does not restart the 36-month clock — you stay on the same cohort timeline you started on.
[Referral] What happens if my customer cancels?
Commission stops when their qualifying subscription revenue stops. If they reactivate later, standard program policy applies to how (and whether) attribution and commission resume.
[Referral] How does this work for Enterprise accounts?
Enterprise opportunities require deal registration, and Clariva administration may set the approved commissionable subscription value for that account — Enterprise pricing isn't self-serve, so this keeps commission tied to the actual negotiated terms.
[Referral] What are Partner Status levels?
Registered, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Status reflects your attributed revenue and program tenure, and unlocks additional benefits and enablement (resources, support, co-marketing, etc.) — it does not change your standard 20% / 15% / 10% commission schedule.
[Consulting] How do I bill my clients?
Through Clariva's built-in Stripe Connect billing. You set your own rates and scope with your client via a Statement of Work, and Clariva handles the direct-charge billing infrastructure on your behalf.
[Consulting] Do I have to draft my own contracts?
No — the platform AI-drafts all five engagement-formation documents (Statement of Work, Scope of Work 5-Stage Lifecycle, Service Scope Definition, Grant Writing Services Proposal, and Proposal Writing Services Contract) from your engagement's own details. Each draft is yours to edit in place, save as a new version, or delete and regenerate — nothing goes to a client without your review first.
[Consulting] How is the revenue share calculated?
It's progressive, on your gross consulting fees actually collected each calendar month: 70% to you on the first $10,000, 67.5% on the next portion up to $25,000, 65% up to $50,000, 62.5% up to $100,000, and 60% on anything above $100,000. Like a tax bracket, each rate only applies to the portion of revenue within that band.
[Consulting] What's the monthly minimum?
Every Consulting Partner is assigned a usage tier (Tier 250, 500, 750, or a custom tier for larger firms) based on active customers and active proposals, each with its own flat monthly minimum. Each month you owe Clariva whichever is greater — the tier minimum or your calculated revenue share — never both.
[Consulting] Can I work on an engagement with another Consulting Partner?
Yes. Approved Consulting Partners can collaborate on a shared engagement, with revenue allocation between partners and customer-protection safeguards built into the platform.
Is there a self-service partner dashboard today?
Yes — once your application is approved, sign in at the same login page you'd use for any Clariva account and you'll land on your Partner Portal automatically. Referral Partners see attributed customers, commission ledger, payout history, and referral link performance; Consulting Partners see engagements, invoices, and monthly settlement — all in real time.
