Choose the path that fits you
Whether you're a single student, a creator with an audience, or a reseller serving institutions, there's a Flowcite program for you.

Apply to be an ambassadorThe Flowcite referral program
Member-get-member: the most trusted, lowest-friction way to share Flowcite. Free and Pro users can invite peers, and both sides are rewarded.
Referrals work because they start from trust. When a researcher recommends Flowcite to a labmate, or a student to a study group, the recommendation carries weight no advertisement can. That's why referral is our lead program, and why we reward both people in every invitation, not just the person who joins.
Share your link
Grab your personal invite link from inside Flowcite and send it to a peer, or share it in your research group, class channel or Discord. No cost, no minimum.
They join & upgrade
Your peer creates a free account through your link and starts using Flowcite. When they move to Pro, the reward unlocks for both of you.
You both earn credit
You and your peer each receive free Flowcite credit, applied automatically to your accounts. Rewards are Flowcite credit and free months, never cash, keeping the program honest and fraud-resistant.
Double-sided by design. Give a friend a free month of Flowcite Pro, and get a free month yourself when they upgrade. Rewards are paid in Flowcite credit rather than cash, which keeps incentives aligned with genuine use and protects the program from abuse. Billing is handled natively through Stripe, so credits apply cleanly to your next invoice.
Reward amounts and eligibility may vary by country as the program rolls out region by region.
The Flowcite affiliate program
For creators and publishers with an academic audience. Earn commission for the paid sign-ups you drive, on transparent, competitive terms.
If you write about research productivity, review academic software, or make content for students and scholars, the affiliate program lets you earn from recommendations you'd make anyway. It's a curated program: we screen every applicant so that Flowcite is only ever promoted as what it is, an integrity-first research and writing platform.

Reseller, VAR & distributor partnerships
Bring Flowcite to universities, libraries and research bodies in your market, with local language, currency and procurement familiarity.
Institutional buyers prefer partners who understand their region, their procurement process and their budget cycle. If you already sell into academia, Flowcite gives you a differentiated, integrity-first platform to add to your portfolio, licensed by concurrent users and ready for campus-scale rollout.
Reseller
Sell Flowcite subscriptions to institutions in your territory for a margin. We support you with product training, demo assets and deal registration.
Value-added reseller
Add integration, onboarding and training services around Flowcite for a richer institutional offering, and a larger share of the engagement.
Distributor
Handle localised fulfilment and billing in your region, invoicing in local currency and bundling Flowcite with your existing academic catalogue.
Just want to refer, not sell? Library consultants, agencies and faculty champions can join as referral partners, introduce an institution and hand off the sale to our team, and earn a one-time fee or revenue share when it closes. No quota, no fulfilment.
Academic integrity comes first
Flowcite exists to help people do honest research and writing faster. Our partner programs are built to protect that, not undermine it.
Growth never comes at the expense of trust. Every referrer, affiliate and reseller agrees to promote Flowcite as a legitimate research and writing assistant, and to a clear set of rules that keep the ecosystem clean.
No essay mills or ghostwriting
Partners who run essay-writing services, ghostwriting operations or “undetectable-AI” and “beat-the-detector” tools are contractually barred from the program.
Clear paid-link disclosure
All affiliates follow FTC and ASCI rules, every sponsored placement is clearly disclosed as a paid link, so audiences always know.
Privacy-first tracking
Referral and affiliate attribution is built on consent-based tracking that complies with GDPR and India's DPDP Act. See our Privacy Policy.
We screen, and we re-screen
Applicants are reviewed before acceptance. If partner-sourced traffic starts framing Flowcite as a way to cheat, we pause the channel and re-screen, no exceptions.
