FAQ

Any early-stage founder or startup building with Claude can join the Startups program. To qualify for Claude credits and extras, your company must have received equity funding from institutional investor, been founded within the last four years, and not previously received Anthropic startup credits. You'll need a Claude Console account, a company email, your website, and a short description of what you're building.

No. The program is open to any early-stage founder or startup with or without VC backing. If you're backed by an Anthropic partner VC or accelerator, mention it in your application and you may qualify for additional benefits.

Fill out the application on this page. It takes about two minutes. You'll need a Claude Console account (the API console, not the Claude app) and a company email address.

No. Claude startup credits apply to the first-party Claude API via the Claude Console. They can't be used on AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, or other third-party platforms.

Yes. Acceptance upgrades you to our highest rate limits , so you can ship to production without throttling while you're on credits.
