What's next

My AI talks to your AI.

As more vendors expose governed AI interfaces, OneIQ ICG becomes the way your AI and your customer's AI collaborate directly - answering an RFP, coordinating a migration - without either side exposing raw infrastructure.

Why partners lead with it

You walk in as the AI expert. For every account you already own.

Your customers want AI in their infrastructure and don't know where to start. You do. OneIQ ICG lets you walk into any account - regardless of what's in the rack - and make it AI-ready, fast. Not a roadmap. Not a 12-week engagement. An answer, on the estate they already run.

01

The natural place to start an AI project

Your customers want AI in their data centre and don't know where to begin. Their infrastructure - the thing you already manage - is the obvious first project. OneIQ ICG is what makes it possible.

02

It surfaces the work you already deliver

Aging hosts, end-of-support versions, stranded capacity, refresh and migration waves - the intelligence brings the next project into view, and it's the hardware, services, and projects you already sell.

03

Consume it, sell it, or build on it

Run it internally to manage your own operations, offer it as a managed service, or use it as the baseline for every future agentic project. One layer, several ways to put it to work.

04

No platform vendor will sell this. You do.

OneIQ ICG is OEM-neutral by design - no hypervisor or cloud vendor owns it and none can. You're the one who made the customer's infrastructure AI-ready. The relationship, the recommendation, and the recurring revenue stay yours.

Three ways to put it to work

Run it, sell it, embed it - or all three.

OneIQ fits into your practice however makes sense. Use it internally to sharpen your own operations, sell it as a managed service, embed it inside your own AI appliance, or combine all three - the layer is the same either way.

Model 1

Run it

Bring your own AI and run your own queries against it. Use OneIQ ICG internally the way an MSP would - to manage your customers' estates, cut assessment time, and surface the next project before the customer asks for it.

  • Cut AI-readiness infrastructure assessment time to minutes
  • Surface refresh, migration, and compliance projects automatically
  • Lift sales productivity - your team asks, OneIQ ICG answers
  • Keep inference costs inside your own LLM spend
Model 2

Manage it

License pre-built Agent Zone skills and report artifacts. OneIQ carries the inference and the innovation roadmap. You carry the customer relationship and set your own price.

  • Pre-built zones for capacity, patch, refresh, and cloud cost
  • OneIQ carries the inference - you own the customer relationship
  • Recurring revenue on infrastructure your customers already run
  • One-time assessments become ongoing managed relationships
Model 3

Embed it

Embed OneIQ ICG as the governed context layer inside your infrastructure analysis appliance - shipping AI-ready context out of the box instead of raw telemetry.

  • Ship AI-ready infrastructure context out of the box - no data plumbing to build
  • OneIQ handles normalisation, enrichment, and governance; you own the appliance experience
  • White-label or co-branded, deployed inside the customer's own environment
  • One integration point instead of connectors for every hypervisor and cloud

Technology Advisor economics

Recurring revenue on every deployment, built into the engagement you're already selling.

OneIQ is deployed into the customer environment as part of a Technology Advisor's hardware or services package. It deploys an Infrastructure Context Gateway (OneIQ ICG) that lets the customer connect any frontier AI model directly to their infrastructure - governed, scoped, and ready to query. Technology Advisors earn recurring margin on every deployment and renewal, and deal size scales with the customer's estate.

Revenue model

Recurring margin per deployment

Technology Advisors earn a significant recurring percentage on every entity licensed and renewed. Exact deal economics are discussed in your first partner conversation - we don't publish rates publicly to protect your pricing in competitive situations.

  • Recurring margin, not one-time
  • Deal size scales with customer VM count
  • Multi-Workspace accounts compound over time
  • No minimum commitment to get started
Deal velocity

Fast time to first revenue

The shortest path to a closed deal is showing a live Agent Zone on infrastructure the customer already owns. That's fast to set up - meaning you can run a proof-of-value in a single meeting and close the same week.

  • No infrastructure pre-requisites for a POV
  • Works on VMware, Nutanix, HCI, bare metal, cloud
  • Agentless deployment removes procurement friction
  • OneIQ provides demo methodology and support
Account stickiness

Infrastructure intelligence is a platform, not a feature

Once a customer has governed Agent Zones, they expand rather than replace. AI agents, compliance audits, and migration projects all pull from the same OneIQ layer - giving you ongoing involvement in every initiative that touches the estate.

  • Expands with every new AI or automation initiative
  • Compliance and audit use cases drive repeat engagement
  • You stay in the account as a trusted technical advisor
Co-selling support

We support the deal, you own the relationship

OneIQ's team is available to join technical calls, run demos, and support proposals - but you stay the primary relationship. We're here to help you close, not to take over the account.

  • Technical pre-sales support available
  • Joint demo capacity on request
  • Proposal and scoping assistance
  • Technology Advisor-branded collateral available

Pipeline intelligence

The baseline tells you what the customer doesn't know yet.

Before a customer can decide where to go next, they need to know what's actually in the estate. OneIQ's baseline surfaces refresh candidates, migration-ready workloads, compliance gaps, and cost anomalies. Most haven't been scoped or budgeted yet. You see them first, before anyone else is in the conversation.

Refresh & lifecycle

Servers past warranty or end-of-support are flagged automatically, before the customer has issued an RFP or called anyone else.

Migration candidates

Underutilised workloads costed against cloud equivalents. The migration conversation starts from data, not from a consultant's estimate.

Compliance & audit gaps

Snapshot gaps, unpatched firmware, agents with broad access: findings that open remediation and audit projects the customer didn't know they had.
