Partnership Tiers & Pricing
Volume-based pricing that rewards growth. The more you build, the less you pay per product.
Work more. Pay less. It's that simple.
$8,000–$10,000 Onboarding Investment

The Anniversary Badge System
Traditional tier systems make you wait for annual reviews. Ours doesn't. Hit a threshold and you badge up immediately.
How It Works
- Everyone starts at Starter. No exceptions — prove the model, master the basics.
- Hit the next threshold? Badge up immediately. Your new rate kicks in right away.
- Badging up starts a 1-year anniversary clock. You have 12 months to sustain that level.
- On your anniversary: Met or exceeded the threshold? You stay. Didn't? You drop to the tier that matches your actual volume.
- Badge UP anytime. Mid-year surge? Your new tier starts immediately with a fresh anniversary clock.
The system is simple: grow and you're rewarded. Immediately. No waiting.
Token-Based Access
No revenue tracking. No percentage calculations. No quarterly reporting headaches. The token system keeps it clean.
Buy tokens. Purchase tokens based on your anticipated volume. Buy more at once, pay less per token — volume discounts reward commitment.
Pick your product. Select from your tier's available product catalog.
Enter dimensions. Input the chimney measurements. The system calculates the token cost based on complexity.
Confirm and generate. Approve the token spend. Your parametric file is generated instantly — ready for fabrication.
Why Tokens?
- No revenue reporting. What you sell it for is your business. We never ask.
- No percentage tracking. No spreadsheets, no audits, no surprises.
- Volume discounts. Buy more tokens, pay less per token. Growth is rewarded automatically.
- API-managed. Secure, tracked, and automated. No manual processes.
- Instant access. Tokens in your account? Generate files 24/7.

The Real Math
Partners typically see 55-73% cost reduction versus outsourcing. Here's what that looks like for a shop doing 100 caps/year:
Outsourcing (status quo):
- • Vendor cost: ~$50,000/year
- • Hidden costs (remeasure trips, quality issues, delays): $10K-15K
- • Total: $60K-65K annually
In-house with SafeStax:
- • Material + labor: ~$23,000
- • Token costs + equipment amortized
- • Total: significantly less than outsourcing
You control the timeline. You control the quality. You control the design. And you keep the margin.
Plus: every hour you spend developing your fabrication processes qualifies for R&D tax credits. The IRS literally pays you to build your capability.
Partnership Expectations
This is a real partnership. We invest in you, you invest in growing. Here's how we keep it fair:
- Minimum floor to maintain partnership. Each tier has an annual threshold — that's the minimum to keep your territory and access.
- Miss a period? Probation — we'll work with you to get back on track.
- Two consecutive misses? Your territory becomes available. We want partners who want to build.
- Starter is capped at 2 years. Grow into Growth tier or risk your territory. This isn't a parking spot — it's a launchpad.
- Termination means full separation. All access to files, ERP, and systems ends. Clean break, both ways.
Why these rules? Because territory is valuable. If you're sitting on a territory and not building, someone else in that market would. We protect partners who perform — and that protects YOU from inactive neighbors.
