What is Keen?

Keen is a B2B partner management platform that enables companies to scale through structured referral and reseller partnerships. The platform provides shared lead visibility, attribution by channel, and partnership performance tracking. Every partnership on Keen has two sides:
  • Receiving company — the program owner that receives referred leads.
  • Referring company — the partner that refers leads into the channel.
The Keen API lets you integrate your systems with these partnerships — sync leads from your CRM, submit leads from custom forms, update lead statuses, and record purchases.

​
Core concepts

Channel

A partnership surface between two companies. Each channel has its own lead statuses, custom properties, and reward triggers.

Lead

A shared contact record within a channel — the core unit of partnership activity. Leads move through statuses and can have purchases recorded against them.

API key

A UUID credential scoped to your company. Used in the X-Api-Key header to authenticate requests.

Action

The Keen API uses a single endpoint. The action field in the request body determines the operation.
