Calculation-native infrastructure for enterprise channel rebate programs.
Built for the channel-finance teams running rebate, MDF, SPIF, and growth-incentive programs at $1B+ B2B technology companies. The platforms most of these companies run on today were architected for the constraints of 2003. Aurgus is built for the constraints of 2026.
The thesis
Vistex, Model N, SAP IRM, IBM CDM — the platforms most $1B+ B2B technology companies run channel rebate programs on — were architected for a specific set of constraints: single-tenant on-prem SAP, batch overnight processing, ABAP customization, audit defensibility through process discipline bolted on after the calculation. Those architectures were rational for their era.
The constraints that shaped them have loosened. Channel programs evolve in quarters now, not years. Audit committees ask sharper questions on variable-consideration accruals. Restatement risk is a quarterly conversation, not an extraordinary event. The calculation infrastructure underneath has to follow.
Aurgus is built for the constraints of 2026: event-sourced calculation, native lineage by architecture, stop-at-the-calculation-boundary integration, AI-grounded operator support. A different architecture for different inputs.
The substrate
Aurgus is built against a practitioner corpus — two decades of cross-vendor implementation patterns observed across SAP, Vistex, Model N, and IBM CDM environments at Fortune 500 distributors and manufacturers. The corpus spans the configurations, audit cycles, partner-program redesigns, quarter-close reconciliations, and architectural workarounds that recur because the underlying calculation infrastructure was never the right shape for the audit-defensibility problem.
That corpus is the substance underneath every architectural decision in Aurgus. Aurgus Resources publishes methodology grounded in it — research substrate independent of vendor relationships, grounded in SEC EDGAR disclosure patterns and PCAOB inspection focus areas. The product is built against it.
The brand boundary
Aurgus is by Unconventional's. The broader ERP advisory and option-space analysis work — SAP S/4HANA migration consulting, platform-architecture review across ERP vendors — lives at itsunconventional.com. Aurgus is specifically the channel-finance infrastructure product line.
The posture
Aurgus is in the design-partner phase. The motion is sales-led, Subject Matter Expert-led, and conversation-led. Every inquiry is read and responded to personally; there is no sales sequence, no nurture cadence, no automated reply.
The pricing structure is a platform fee keyed to annual rebate volume managed under the platform; it is not per-seat, per-agreement, per-module, or usage-metered. The full pricing methodology is published openly; the specific number for any engagement is established in the discovery conversation, not on a public page.
What we commit to structurally.
Customer data is never monetized
Revenue is platform fee only. We never train models on your data, never resell anonymized aggregates, never build benchmarking products downstream. The trust commitment is structural to how the company is funded.
Stop at the calculation boundary
Aurgus calculates; your ERP posts. No double-modeling of journal entries, no duplicate GL state, no integration gymnastics. The boundary is the architecture, not a contractual clause.
Customer-direct engagement
Every engagement starts with a Subject Matter Expert conversation. We don't sell through resellers, services partners, or implementation consultants. If you talk to Aurgus, you talk to Aurgus.
Talk with a Subject Matter Expert.
Twenty minutes, no pitch. A discovery conversation about your channel rebate program — and whether Aurgus is the right architectural fit.
