Manufacturer Partner Program

Your Pump Data, Always Accurate — In the Hands of Every Engineer

Engineers already use PumpCycle to size and select pumps. Integrate your product catalog so they always work with your official, manufacturer-verified performance data.

What Happens Without You

When manufacturers aren't at the table, others fill the gap — with data you didn't approve.

Inaccurate Representations

Engineers digitize your datasheets with AI or enter data manually. Without your input, curves may be inaccurate — misrepresenting your products to potential buyers.

No Control Over Your Data

Community contributions appear alongside your products. You can't correct errors, update obsolete models, or issue recalls in third-party tools.

Invisible to Your Customers

Engineers are already comparing pumps digitally. If your official data isn't in the tools they use, they work with whatever data is available — accurate or not.

How the Partner Program Works

From application to live data in days, not months.

Apply

Connect

Receive OAuth2 API credentials — a client_id and client_secret for programmatic access.

Publish

Push curves via REST API. They go live immediately with the "Manufacturer Verified" badge — no review queue.

Manage

Update curves, mark models as obsolete, issue recalls, or archive discontinued products — all via API.

What Partners Get

Data Authority

"Manufacturer Verified" badge
Highest trust tier — engineers know this is official data
Instant publication
No review queue — curves go live the moment you push them
Data protection
Your curves cannot be overwritten by community contributions
Full lifecycle control
Mark products as obsolete, issue recalls, archive — in real time

Technical Integration

REST API with OAuth2
Industry-standard client credentials flow — integrate with your existing systems
Your product codes as identifiers
Map curves to your internal product IDs via external_id — no duplicate management
Configurable rate limits
Batch sync your entire catalog or push updates incrementally
Full audit trail
Every API call logged — token grants, data changes, access history

With vs. Without the Partner API

Your data appears in PumpCycle either way. The question is whether it's accurate.

Feature	Without Partner API	With Partner API
Data Source	AI extraction or manual entry	Direct from your product database
Accuracy	Depends on scan quality and AI	Your official, validated data
Verification Badge	"Community Verified" or "Pending Review"	"Manufacturer Verified"
Publication Speed	Days (requires manual review)	Immediate (auto-published)
Data Priority	Can be overwritten by higher-tier data	Cannot be overwritten by community data
Lifecycle Control	None — data lives forever	Obsolete, recall, archive at any time
Update Method	Re-upload manually	API call with your product codes

Technical Overview

A standard REST API. If your team can call an endpoint, you can integrate.
