Anthropic Partner in Poland: How to Vet a Claude Firm
Short answer
Claude Partner Network is Anthropic's free partner programme, launched in March 2026. Membership confirms a place in the programme, and you check the quality of the work separately. Check a firm that rolls out Claude with six questions: what runs in production, what it costs, who leads the call, which goal goes into the contract, who owns the code and when the firm advises against building. Syntalith is a member of the programme.

What the Claude Partner Network is
The Claude Partner Network is Anthropic's programme for firms that help companies roll out Claude. Anthropic announced it on 12 March 2026, together with a $100 million investment in partner training, technical support and joint marketing. Membership is free, and according to Anthropic over 40,000 firms applied. The status alone does not set anyone apart.
Certifications are a separate element. Anthropic Academy certifies consultants, which means specific people. A firm does not sit an exam, the people who work in it do. "Certified partner" and "a firm that employs certified practitioners" mean different things.
The programme tiers
On 3 June 2026 Anthropic added the Services Track and the Claude Partner Hub: tiers with published thresholds and a public directory that shows a firm's tier, its certified team and its deployments. New firms start at the Registered tier.
| Tier | Certified people | Clients with Claude in production | Public client stories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Registered | a commitment to 10 | no threshold | no threshold |
| Select | at least 10 | at least 2 in the last 12 months | at least 1 |
| Preferred | at least 100 | at least 15 | at least 3 |
| Global Premier | at least 1,000 | at least 100 in 3 regions | at least 15 |
Anthropic reviews the tiers every quarter and grants promotions on 1 January and 1 July. You can check any firm's tier in the Claude Partner Hub directory.
What membership confirms and what it leaves open
Membership is a sign of commitment: the firm works with Anthropic's materials, training and support. It is no recommendation of the partner's services, it does not certify the firm and it does not prove that a rollout at your company will succeed. That depends on the scope, the data, the integrations and the person on the business side who answers for the result.
If you meet phrases such as "certified by Anthropic", "authorised representative" or a hint that Anthropic vouches for the quality of the work, ask for the source.

How to check a firm that rolls out Claude
Gartner estimates that of the thousands of AI agent vendors only about 130 offer real agentic solutions. According to Gartner (2025), over 40% of agentic projects will be cancelled by the end of 2027. The answers to six questions say more than a status in a directory.
- What do you have in production, and can I see it?
- What does it cost, net, split into the rollout, the models and maintenance?
- Who leads the first call: the engineer who then builds, or a salesperson?
- Which goal will you write into the contract, and how will you check the result?
- Who owns the code when the project ends?
- For which process did you advise a client against a rollout, and why?
Add one technical question: how do you match the model to a step of the process? A good answer is "it depends on the step": a cheaper model for classification, a stronger one for hard cases. "Always the strongest" means a higher token bill than needed.

Worked example · Scenario
How we count the payback: board meeting notes
We run the same count for your team's tasks in Claude in the free analysis.
€1,309
a month for writing notes after 50 meetings
Payback: 1.4 mo.
Our assumptions are 45 minutes for the note from a board meeting and the update of the task list, and checking in 25% of the old time. €34.90 an hour is the EU average hourly labour cost for 2025 according to Eurostat, for companies with 10 or more employees. Licence: ChatGPT Business or Claude Team at 20 USD per person a month on annual billing, about €17.85 at the ECB rate of 1.1205 USD per euro on 22 October 2026. We count the whole licence against notes here, although the team also uses it for other work. Rollout: from €1,150 for up to 10 people, from €2,300 for 11 to 40 people.
