CO2 Router Design Partner Program
Help shape the pre-execution control plane for compute.
CO2 Router decides whether compute is allowed to run, where it should run, and under what environmental conditions before execution happens. This is a structured pilot for a small number of teams that want live value, direct access, and a clear commercial path if the system proves itself in one real workflow.
Who This Is For
Infra, platform, SRE, or data teams with meaningful cloud, CI, or scheduled compute.
Operators under pressure around emissions, workload placement, compliance, or policy enforcement.
Teams with an internal champion and a commercial path if value is proven quickly.
Best Early Lanes
GitHub Actions and CI routing
Put CO2 Router in front of build and test execution to decide whether jobs run now, reroute to a cleaner region, or delay under policy.
Scheduled and batch compute
Govern recurring jobs, model refreshes, ETL pipelines, and non-urgent workloads with real environmental authorization before launch.
High-compute policy gates
Apply binding checks to expensive or high-impact jobs where carbon, water, placement, or traceability policy must be satisfied before execution.
What Partners Get
Early access to CO2 Router in one real limited-scope workflow.
Hands-on integration support and direct founder access.
Influence over roadmap inside the scoped pilot lane.
Preferred founding pricing if the pilot converts.
What We Ask
A 3-month pilot term with one clearly scoped workflow or workload family.
Biweekly feedback sessions plus async communication by email or portal.
Practical integration cooperation and honest feedback on value, friction, and missing pieces.
Permission for anonymized results if the pilot succeeds. Named reference only with explicit approval.
Pilot Structure
Month 0
Qualification and setup
Confirm fit, lock scope, sign the design partner agreement, define success metrics, and schedule kickoff.
Month 1
Activation
Onboard technically, connect the first workflow, run the first real policy decision, and capture first value as soon as live impact appears.
Month 2
Iteration
Expand only within the agreed scope, refine policies and proof surfaces, and log operational feedback against live usage.
Month 3
Graduation
Review outcomes before term end, present the paid continuation plan, and either convert, extend with a strict reason, or close cleanly.
