Become a founding design partner.
A design partnership is the whole proof pipeline pointed at your workload: we run it live on silicon, quantify what it's worth to your stack, and put it behind a conditional LOI you only honor if we hit your bar. You get early access, founder access, and roadmap influence. We get a real workload to prove ATOMiK on. The asymmetry is intentional — the risk sits with us.
This is for you if
You run an aggregation/reduction or replica-sync workload that gates on throughput at correctness — counters, rollups, sketches, or convergent state that has to stay exactly correct under concurrent, out-of-order load, and that you keep correct today with a lock, shard fan-out, CRDT metadata, or consensus. If your operator is order-dependent, ATOMiK returns an honest no — this program is not for every workload, and we say so up front.
What partners get
Your workload, run live on silicon
We run your aggregation or replica-sync workload at your scale on the AX7020 and hand you the dated, witnessed transcript — not a slide, the actual abench output and the byte-identical result hash.
The full proof packet
A silicon-measured verdict, a downloadable proof report, a Cost-of-Lock value memo computed from your own baseline, and a conditional LOI — the leave-behind your team uses to decide.
Direct founder access
You work with the founder, not a sales funnel. Architecture questions get answered by the person who built the engine and proved the algebra.
Influence the roadmap
Your archetype gets prioritized in the workload catalog and the runtime. Design partners shape what ships next while it is still cheap to shape.
Preferential early-partner terms
Founding partners get early-partner commercial terms, locked before general availability. Specifics are set with you — this page makes no pricing claim.
White-glove integration support
We do the integration work for the evaluation — mapping your workload to the delta-state engine and standing up the live run — so the bar is tested on your real workload, fast.
How it works
Scope your bar
Bring one workload: the aggregation (or sync), the rate, and the throughput-at-correctness bar you gate commitment on. You get a silicon-measured verdict — or an honest no if your operator is order-dependent.
Test your bar →Conditional LOI
We draft the bar; you counter-sign a Conditional LOI that commits you to the next step only if a live run meets it. Non-binding until executed — it scopes the deal, it doesn't lock you in.
See the archetypes →Live silicon run
We run your workload at your scale on the AX7020 and return the dated transcript: sustained throughput plus the byte-identical result across 1/2/4/8 banks. The bar is met on your workload, witnessed.
And formally proven →Pilot
On a PASS, we proceed to a scoped pilot on the terms in the LOI. If it doesn't pass, you owe nothing and we tell you straight — including "no fit."
What we ask — and what we won't do
We ask for one real (sanitized) workload, your honest bar, and a good-faith, conditional intent to proceed to a pilot if the live run meets that bar. That's it — no binding commitment until terms are executed, and nothing proprietary changes hands without an NDA and scope.
What we won't do: quote a number we haven't measured, claim order-independence for an operator that isn't abelian, or promise an end-to-end speedup we can't back. Every figure you see is measured on the AX7020 or formally proven; the value math is arithmetic on your own baseline. We'd rather tell you “no fit” than oversell.
Representative archetypes, measured numbers, conditional commitments. The strongest application names one workload, one current baseline, one painful constraint, and the bar the evidence has to clear.
