Rapid7, Inc. announced 2026 updates to its PACT Partner Program designed to strengthen alignment between Rapid7 and its partner ecosystem and accelerate scalable growth through the channel. The 2026 program updates introduce new partner tier differentiation, simplified deal motions, and enhanced program economics to make it easier for partners and Rapid7 teams to engage customers together and deliver value faster. The 2026 PACT updates reinforce Rapid7?s commitment to building a highly aligned partner ecosystem, where shared engagement models, clear attribution, and predictable economics enable partners and Rapid7 teams to win together.

The new PACT framework supports partners delivering managed detection and response and other recurring security services where consistency and margin clarity are critical. Additional key updates to the program include: Platinum Partner Tier: Introduces a top-tier designation for strategic partners that consistently deliver outstanding performance, customer impact, and engagement. Updated Deal Motions: Aligns the program around two primary deal motions: Deal Registration for partner-sourced opportunities and Co-Sell for Rapid7-sourced opportunities.

Earlier partner engagement and clearer attribution reduce ambiguity and simplify execution. Improved Program Economics: Offers more competitive partner economics for partner-sourced deals. Supported by simplified deal motions, product category alignment, and faster quoting, these enhancements deliver greater predictability and stronger margins.

Tech Champion Program: Establishes a structured enablement and engagement framework for partner sales engineers, including early roadmap visibility and technical collaboration to strengthen alignment in complex managed detection and response and exposure management opportunities. Together, these updates reinforce Rapid7?s commitment to building a channel ecosystem defined by simplicity, accountability, and shared long-term growth.
