OpenAI is putting $150 million behind a partner network built for enterprise deployment, not just model access. The target of 300,000 certified consultants by the end of 2026 shows where the AI platform fight is moving: implementation capacity.

Anthropic launched the Claude Partner Network on March 12, 2026 with an initial $100 million commitment. The program is designed to help service partners move enterprise Claude deployments from pilot projects into production.
