Amplitude Startup Plan: first year free, no card

Save ~$60000

Page calls the first year a $60,000 value

Amplitude's startup page says the first year of the Growth plan is free, with no credit card, and calls it a $60,000 value. The limit is 200,000 monthly tracked users or 100 million events a month. The year-two card says 40% off the annual Plus plan. The FAQ on the same page says Amplitude sends a usage-based quote 60 days before the free year ends, and that startup alumni keep discounts on Plus and Growth annual plans. You create a free account, then apply from the banner inside the workspace. Amplitude says eligible accounts are approved from inside the product, with no partner. A separate Y Combinator offer lives on Bookface. A different scholarship for Black founders, with its own employee and funding limits, is also on the site and is not this plan.

Who

Fewer than 20 employees and less than $10 million raised. No referral partner is required.

Price after

The pricing cards say year two is 40% off the annual Plus plan. You can also drop to the free plan of 2 million events a month.

Cloudflare for Startups: $10,000 tier, and the page disagrees with itself

Save ~$10000

$10,000 bootstrapped tier

The same page's qualification block says the company was founded within the last 10 years, is funded up to Series B, and was funded within the last 12 months. Those lines disagree. The $100,000 tier needs under $5 million raised and an affiliated partner. The $350,000 tier needs $5 million or more and an affiliated partner. Workers AI is listed as up to $50,000 in the coverage table. The FAQ caps it at $2,500 on the $10,000 tier, $10,000 on the $100,000 tier, and $50,000 on the $350,000 tier. R2 is capped at $10,000. AI Gateway is temporarily not covered. Credits last one year or until they are used. The page says extensions cannot be approved at this time. It both lists a 100% SLA and says the Startup Plan does not include a service level agreement. You need a business email that matches the domain and a payment method on file. The program is once per startup.

Who

A for-profit company with a matching business email, a public website, and a public social or GitHub profile, applying for the first time.
