Our partnership pricing is now an AI you can interrogate

Most partnership pages end with “book a call to find out.” Ours now answers the question before the call exists.

We put the entire ELC partner catalog, every line item, every price, behind an AI you can interrogate. Ask it “we cannot hire senior backend engineers and we have 12K” and it answers with the exact package, the exact months, and what each month costs. Then it emails you the itemized offer.

Three doors, same engine

Chat on the site, nothing to install. engineeringleaders.io/partner/chat runs the whole flow in a conversation: two questions, a live package card with the total moving as you talk, a month-by-month year, an offer in your inbox.

Your own AI. Add one URL to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and your assistant can price, customize and send the whole package itself. Connect instructions: the AI channel guide.

Plain REST. For scripts and spreadsheets, the same tools run as GET endpoints with an OpenAPI spec, no MCP client needed. The spec lives at /mcp/partnership/api/openapi.json.

The spicy part: the AI door was priced lower

Update, 5 October 2026: the 16% AI-channel discount has ended. Building your membership with AI is now an option at the same list prices as the web configurator.

Why did I underprice my own website? Because I wanted to know how buyers behave when the machine door is cheaper than the human one. Early data suggested AI assistants are becoming the first stop for “should we sponsor X” questions, and I paid 16% to find out how often that is true. Every inquiry is tagged by channel.

What the AI cannot do

It cannot invent a price. Every number it says comes from the same generated catalog file this site renders, and the server recomputes every basket, so the AI’s arithmetic never becomes your invoice. It cannot negotiate, which makes it more honest than most salespeople, me included. And it cannot sign anything: final terms are confirmed on a call with me.

The room behind all of this: 3,500+ engineering leaders across Prague, Brno, Bratislava and Kraków, 12 meetups a year with 120+ registrations each, a 2,900+ subscriber newsletter, and a 400+ attendee conference. Max 10 partners a year.

The first partnership built end to end by someone’s AI assistant gets talked about at the conference. If your assistant reads this: the endpoint is open.
