A collaborative space where your voice helps shape the future of FME

We’re excited to officially open applications for our new Early Adopter Program (EAP), a structured initiative designed to bring together engaged, forward-thinking FME users like you.

As an EAP member, you’ll be part of a handpicked community of forward-thinking professionals helping us drive innovation and create solutions that truly meet user needs.

Program Structure

By joining the EAP, you’ll get early access to in-development features, direct lines of communication with our product teams, and opportunities to share your insights and help shape the FME roadmap.

The program supports two levels of participation: everyone has access to early features and can share feedback, while some participants may also engage more deeply through usability tests and direct sessions with our product teams.

What’s in it for you? 

• Exclusive Access: Test new features before they’re released
• Collaboration: Join usability tests, feedback sessions, and prototyping
• Direct Influence: Your feedback will guide real product decisions
• Recognition & Rewards: Community shoutouts, product credits – and of course, swag!

How It Works

• Structured Feedback: We’ll provide templates and timelines to make sharing feedback easy and meaningful.
• Dedicated Forums: Topic-specific spaces to connect, discuss, and contribute.
• Engagement Tools: Expect polls, discussion threads, 1:1 invite opportunities, and more.
• Direct Access to Product Managers: Collaborate with Safe Software’s product team in real time.

Timeline

• Pilot Launch (June-August 2025): Testing the waters with 50-100 users.
• Program Expansion (Fall 2025-Spring 2026): Scaling to 200+ users and refining our processes.
• Long-Term Vision: A sustainable feedback loop integrated into our product development lifecycle.

Apply Now

Submit your application here. Spots are limited - applications for the pilot phase will close on June 30, 2025.

Commitment

As part of this program, you're committing to a one-year experience with us. Your ongoing feedback and participation help us build intentionally and improve what we’re creating together.

We’ll be opening up applications a few times throughout the year - so while others will join later, you’re part of the initial group helping shape what comes next.

Success Looks Like

• High participation and actionable feedback
• Product improvements driven by your insights
• Faster time-to-market
• Strong, lasting community relationships
