There's a ton of stuff for Smite, Favored Enemy, Grit, Ki, and so on, so there must be something that works with Challenge, right?

Class/Race Options

Wondrous Items:
Crown of Challenge: (head; Price 21,000 gp) This jagged steel crown is rough and scratched but shows no sign of being dented or misshapen. Once per day, the wearer can issue a challenge to a creature able to see and hear him. The creature gains a +2 morale bonus on melee attack rolls and damage rolls against the crown’s wearer for 1 minute. The creature challenged also takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls and damage rolls against all targets other than the wearer, and takes a –2 penalty to the save DCs of its spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities that affect other targets unless they also affect the wearer of the crown. These penalties last 1 minute or until the creature challenged makes a melee attack against the wearer of the crown. If the crown’s wearer has the challenge class feature, he gains the benefit of his challenge against the creature challenged without expending a daily use of his own challenge ability.
Vambraces of the Tactician: (wrist, 8,000gp) A cavalier wearing these vambraces is considered two class levels higher for purposes of determining the effects of his challenge class feature. Furthermore, once per day as a swift action, a cavalier with the tactician class feature can increase the area in which he grants teamwork feats. Before the end of his next turn, when the cavalier grants his allies a teamwork feat, he can grant it to all allies within 60 feet, though they must still be able to see and hear him.
A quick search on AoN finds a Champion's Banner, Tunic of Deadly Might, Daikyu of Commanding Presence, Purging Falcata, Valor's Minion, the Valiant weapon property, a Challenging Shield, Emissary's Breastplate and the Champion/Dastard armor property (and a few other things unrelated to a cavalier's challenge, as is the way with searches.) Feat-wise there's Chain Challenge so long as you're not in PFS. The Charger animal companion archetype helps too.
Edit: the search used was for the word challenge, on AoN's search page. Not overly complicated...
Edit 2: the Battle Herald PrC works with challenge, and Sacred Sentinel advances it at half rate. An Evangelist advances it with a 1-level delay of course as it does everything else.
