Match readiness
Clarifies whether the product, channel, buyer, and pilot path are real enough to spend time on.
Trust resources
The questions to settle before a match becomes a transaction.
MEGA(niche) is not trying to automate trust too early. These resources make early conversations concrete: who owns what, who supports whom, what data moves, and what has to be true before a pilot launches.
Operating system
Five lightweight templates for founder-led matching.
These are not legal documents. They are the working structure MEGA(niche) uses to reduce ambiguity before lawyers, billing rails, and scaled marketplace automation enter the process.
Data and security
Surfaces personal data, customer data, integrations, access boundaries, and minimum security expectations.
Support matrix
Separates product support, channel support, onboarding, escalation, documentation, and customer communication.
Revenue-share terms
Turns the business model into an initial discussion: pricing, split, minimums, territory, packaging, and renewals.
Pilot launch
Defines a small first launch with success criteria, timelines, owners, feedback loops, and stop/go decisions.
Match-room checklist
Use this before the first serious call.
Builder must explain
- What workflow the product improves and who feels the pain.
- Demo status, onboarding requirements, and support capacity.
- Data handled, integrations needed, and security posture.
- Pricing expectation and what would make a channel partnership attractive.
Distributor must explain
- Which audience or customer base could buy the software.
- How the channel reaches customers and who has buying authority.
- What software categories customers already ask for.
- What support, training, and reputational risk the channel can carry.
MEGA(niche) must settle
- Whether there is a believable reason this exact channel can sell this exact product.
- What should be tested in the first pilot and what would count as proof.
- Which responsibilities must be documented before customers see the offer.
- Whether the match should progress, pause for more information, or be rejected.
Responsibility matrix
The support split should be explicit before customers are involved.

Illustrative term-sheet skeleton
The first commercial conversation should fit on one page.
Product and channel: What is being sold, to which customer segment, through which trusted channel.
Pilot scope: Timeline, number of customers, onboarding effort, success criteria, and stop/go date.
Revenue model: Subscription price, split, minimum floor if relevant, payout timing, and renewal handling.
Rights and packaging: White-label or co-branded, territory, exclusivity if any, marketing rights, and case-study approval.
Data and support: Data access, processors, incident handling, support ownership, escalation path, and offboarding.
This is operational preparation, not legal advice. Real agreements should be reviewed by qualified counsel before launch.
