Aligned with the production vendor app: sign up, legal steps first, then profile and listings, then your dashboard. Consolidated for vendor teams.
Value Aligners is a vendor-agnostic, AI-assisted cybersecurity marketplace focused on SMBs. Buyers move through a four-step guided journey. Each stage creates context-rich opportunities for matched vendors.
On the buyer marketplace, filtering is organized around product, service, and vendor so SMBs can narrow results without extra clutter at the top of the page. Exact layout is subject to the live client app.
These recordings walk through how Value Aligners drives leads for vendors, what we expect from partners, and how onboarding fits together.
By the end of first-time onboarding in the vendor app, you should be:
Today, onboarding in production centers on a mutual NDA and a short MOU (memorandum of understanding). These are presented inside the vendor application, early in the flow.
Protects confidential information shared in both directions while you evaluate the partnership. The full text is available in the app. You can usually download a copy for your records. Completing the step records your agreement to the terms.
The short MOU captures the high-level commercial and operating intent for participating in the marketplace. It is the primary relationship document at this onboarding stage. Deeper or longer-form agreements (historically sometimes titled marketplace agreement and addenda) may follow as the program matures; your MOU or your Value Aligners contact will spell out what comes next.
Signing. Submitting the steps confirms agreement. Where the product supports it, typed name and e-signature style capture is preferred for legal clarity; if the current screen uses acknowledgment checkboxes only, your team may enhance that in a later release. Keep downloads of executed PDFs if offered.
This is the path a net-new vendor follows in the live vendor application.
Create your vendor account using the registration experience linked from Value Aligners.
Open the Onboarding area. Complete NDA, then the short MOU, using the embedded documents. Until both are completed, the app does not expose the remaining onboarding work.
After legal steps, complete your vendor profile (brand and company details, coverage, and any other required fields shown in the left navigation or onboarding checklist). This matches the "setup vendor profile" milestone in the product.
Add your first offering. The app treats first listing as dependent on profile completion: you typically cannot finish listing steps until the profile is in place.
After the initial onboarding path, you land in the dashboard for monitoring. From there you can add additional products and services, iterate listings, and use other enabled tabs as your account matures.
Value Aligners may review submissions for clarity and policy before listings go live or before leads route. Vetting often completes within 3 to 5 business days after submission when materials are complete. First leads depend on ICP fit and demand; a rough planning range used internally has been about 2 to 3 weeks after activation, not a guarantee.
If you see similar questions asked in both the early legal block and the profile wizard, follow the in-app prompts as the source of truth while design consolidates duplicate fields.
Figures such as service fees, renewal participation, premium placement, and channel exclusivity for marketplace-introduced clients may appear in your short MOU or in follow-on definitive agreements that reference the MOU. Older collateral sometimes described a base transaction model (for example 15% of transaction value) and a full-platform model (for example 30%), plus renewal percentages; treat those as reference only until they appear in your executed documents. Other structures (lead fees, subscriptions, bidding) apply only if explicitly written into your deal.
Designated channels. Expect requirements that business development, support, and operational conversations with marketplace-introduced clients stay inside Value Aligners tools (messaging, ticketing, approved conferencing) so audits and analytics stay reliable. Off-platform contact can carry contractual risk.
Value Aligners will align with you on ideal customer profile and explicit qualification rules (often 5 to 10 must-haves or disqualifiers). The more precise you are, the better routing before a lead reaches your team.
Typical lead payload: problem statement, budget range, timeline, and details matched to your ICP (size, industry, geography, compliance context, technical environment, incumbents, stakeholders, process).
Targets commonly discussed with vendors include:
Missed obligations can lead to notice and cure, suspension from lead routing, or removal for material failure, and may tie to credits or payouts per your agreements.
The platform may use AI-style triage on support requests (patterns, logs, knowledge base) before escalation to your team. You remain accountable for substantive resolution. Clear runbooks improve outcomes and protect SLAs.
So both sides share and collect information under clear confidentiality and intent before you invest time in profile and listings.
The app gates those steps until the legal onboarding substeps are complete.
You remain responsible for your product and for customer satisfaction unless a specific full-platform services deal says otherwise. The MOU and follow-on documents define facilitation roles.
Yes. Keep listings, SLAs, and compliance statements current, and tell Value Aligners when something material changes.
No. It is a completeness and policy check, not a suitability guarantee for every buyer.

Next steps: register in the vendor app, complete legal steps, profile, and first listing, then coordinate with Value Aligners on activation and any pilot or scale-up plan.
