SAN FRANCISCO, California — February 12, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Operant AI has launched its new Channel Partner Program, a strategic initiative designed to empower resellers to bring their customers to the forefront of AI, Agentic, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) security in 2026.
The program represents a go-to-market strategy that equips partners with the tools, knowledge, and support needed to help their customers achieve innovation goals while maintaining safe and responsible AI operations.
The Operant AI Channel Partner Program offers resellers access to enablement resources. Partners will benefit from dedicated education modules covering AI, Agentic, and MCP security in 2026. The program includes incentives designed to drive partner profitability, along with 24/7 support through Operant AI’s partner portal.
Kat Mills, Head of Channel Partners at Operant AI, leads the program. Mills’ background provides her with an understanding of reseller challenges and opportunities. She has experience in partner development and growth. Her track record and knowledge of cybersecurity reseller needs positions her to build a program that serves the partner community.
“The AI security landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and resellers need a partner who understands both the technology and the business of the channel,” said Kat Mills. “Having been a reseller myself, I know firsthand the challenges partners face and what they need to succeed. This program is built from the ground up with those needs in mind, providing not just world-class technology, but the education, incentives, and support that drive real business outcomes. We’re committed to ensuring our partners can confidently lead their customers into the AI-powered future while maintaining the security and responsibility that organizations demand.”
Operant AI’s Channel Partner Program addresses market demand by enabling resellers to deliver solutions that protect against threats while fostering innovation. Partners gain access to Operant AI’s platform, training and certification opportunities, co-marketing resources, and a partner community.
Bob Fehrenbach, Sales Director at a cybersecurity reseller, said that Kat Mills and the Operant AI team have been partners to work with. He added that they value partners who understand how to engage through the channel and align to customer needs. He said as AI security continues to be an important focus area across the market, it’s helpful to work with teams that are responsive and knowledgeable in the space.
