Partner with Rayforge
Get your machines in front of laser cutting and engraving enthusiasts everywhere. We'll handle the software, the tutorials, and the community — you ship great hardware.
Get in TouchWhat You Get
We're building real integrations, not just slapping your logo on a page. Here's what a partnership looks like.
First-Run Setup
When someone launches Rayforge for the first time, they pick their brand and model - and everything just works automatically.
Branded Profiles
Your machines show up with your logo and photos right in the selector. Your brand, front and center, every day.
Recommended Showcase
A dedicated spot in the app and on the website showing off partner machines with photos, specs, and purchase links.
"Works with Rayforge"
Receive branded badge graphics for your website, packaging, and marketplace listings, which link back to Rayforge to build higher customer trust.
Material Presets
We dial in power, speed, and pass settings specifically for your machines. Fewer support headaches and happier customers.
Bundled Install
Ship Rayforge with your machine via QR code or a custom installer. Save the cost of building your own software.
Priority Support
Got a new controller? We'll add support for it fast-think release day, not months later. Your roadmap is covered.
Machine Spotlights
Tutorials, Setup, Unboxing, Material Tests, and more - all on the Barebaric YouTube channel.
GitHub Visibility
Your logo in the Rayforge README seen by developers and makers. Machine profiles get committed with "Contributed by Brand".
Community Presence
An official spot for your brand on GitHub Discussions and Discord to chat with users directly.
User Insights
Aggregated, anonymized data on what materials and features your customers are actually using. (All opt-in, of course.)
Cross-Promotion
Blog posts, social media shout-outs, and reviews across YouTube, GitHub, and Discord.
