## Overview

PartnerAI sits at the intersection of your daily consulting work and AWS partner programs. Instead of manually reviewing every customer interaction to determine if it qualifies for partner programs, PartnerAI does this automatically using AI analysis.

### How PO Detection Works

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Intelligent Monitoring** PartnerAI continuously analyzes meeting transcripts, chat conversations, and workflow content for signals that indicate a Partner Originated opportunity.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Criteria Matching** Identified opportunities are evaluated against AWS partnership criteria — including new workload migrations, service adoption, and customer commitment signals.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Recommendation & Review** PartnerAI surfaces qualified opportunities with a confidence score and supporting evidence so you can review before submission.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Streamlined Submission** Automatically prepares deal registration documentation and submits directly to the AWS ACE platform, validating requirements before processing.
{% endstep %}
