When your partner network is visible and measurable, everyone wins.
Most ecosystem strategies don’t fail because partnerships are broken. They fail because no one’s measuring them properly. Partnership teams are asked to prove ROI without understanding the full “I” — the time, resources, and effort it takes to build value. Executives are expected to support strategies without seeing where investments are going or what returns they’re generating. The results are misaligned expectations, eroding trust, and stalled momentum. QuarqAI changes that.
We make both sides of the equation visible, from contributions and commitments to outcomes and impact, so you can finally measure ROI with clarity, confidence, and precision.
For Partner Teams
You’re building partnerships that drive impact, but no one sees the full picture. You’re over-explaining. Underestimated. Constantly asked to justify your work. You’re not only managing partnerships, you’re trying to prove they matter. With QuarqAI, you can finally stop defending and start leading.
For Executive Leaders
You know partnerships should fuel growth, but you’re not seeing proof. You’re expected to back ecosystem strategies without reliable data or a clear ROI. You’re not trying to resist partnerships, you’re trying to manage risk. With QuarqAI, you don’t have to guess. You get the truth.

From Broken to Built: Introducing quarq.ai
The other day, a friend pointed me to a post by Asher Matthew, CEO of Partner Leaders. In it, he claimed that the “#1 problem
The Problem With B2B Partner Ecosystems Volume 3: Understanding Why the “Partner Paradox” Exists
A few years ago, I led an ecosystem team that, on paper, was wildly successful. However, in our CEO’s eyes…let’s say, ‘not so much.’
At this particular company, I took over a partner ecosystem organization previously run by someone who had created significant animosity by tagging into almost every deal in the pipeline, claiming credit for marginally influenced deals, and producing questionable results.
The Problem With B2B Partner Ecosystems Volume 2: The Non-Linear Nature of Ecosystem Orgs
One of the fundamental problems partner ecosystem teams face is a lack of clarity (a topic I’ll explore in depth later). As I explain the Thrum value proposition to potential investors and prospects, one thing becomes clear: partner ecosystems are poorly understood.
The terminology — partnerships, alliances, ecosystem, partner ecosystem, business development, and even “Nearbound” — evokes different ideas and objectives depending on people’s past experiences with partnerships. These experiences typically shape their future expectations.
