THE OFFER
$30,000.
One year.
First thirty.
Flat fee. No tiers. No revenue triggers. No regional carveouts. Pay once for Year 1, keep what you discover. First thirty companies in across the four chains. Then it closes.
WHY THIS PRICE
Plain version, no fine print.
One avoided fluid-end swap pays for it
Average frac fluid-end replacement on the pad runs $40k–$80k plus a lost stage. The license is $30k. The math is short.
Nothing else to buy in year one
Hardware comes from us or installs through us. No surprise SaaS line. No per-message telemetry charge. Year-1 budget is the $30k and the install fee, full stop.
Year 2 priced before you decide
We write the renewal number down and put it in front of you before the year ends. No quiet step-up.
First-mover seat in the marketplace
Failure modes you spot first become tradeable signed assets. You set the price, you keep 80–90%, we take 10–20% to mediate. Only the first thirty get a seat opened in Year 1.

What the license actually gets you.
- A licensed seat in the Five Star network for Year 1 — full access to the substrate-native intelligence layer for your chain.
- First pattern-marketplace seat in your lane. First-mover discoveries (failure modes you spot first) become tradeable signed assets. 80–90% to you; 10–20% Five Star + Validiti mediation cut.
- Reference-customer publishing rights in Phase 1. The first OFC licensee to publish a case study lifts close rates 15–20% for everyone in the network — including future-you, on new lanes.
- Sealed binary integrity. Source never crosses your firewall. Your customers feel a substrate-native vendor. You control the brand on the pad.
What we ask you to bring.
- Existing equipment exposure in your target chain — you sell into, operate, or service the gear today
- A CTO or VP-engineering who can sign the license inside 90 days
- Field service capacity to install + maintain the sealed binary on customer hardware (or willingness to use the Five Star paid-install path)
Next steps.
- Confirm a 60-minute fit assessment with your CTO and a field-ops decision-maker.
- We walk the math for your equipment count — honest numbers, no extrapolation.
- License issued, kickoff date set, hardware supply chain initialized.
Licenses are first-come, network-wide. Thirty introductory licenses across all four
chains. OFC is open now; DC, PC, OC open as each chain is ready.
