Cloud & infra

$805k+ in cloud & infra perks.
6 programs, curated.

The 6 cloud credit programs every fundraising founder should know about. AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft, Cloudflare, and DigitalOcean offer up to $200k in compute per startup — but the tier you qualify for depends entirely on your investor or accelerator referral. We list both the ceiling and the realistic eligibility for each so you don't waste an application on a tier you can't get.
