Startup credits, grants and discounts for the tools on this site. Every amount is worded the way the official source words it ("up to" means up to), with who's eligible and a link to the source. None of these are affiliate links.
Conditions change and most programs are selective, so confirm on the official page before you plan around a credit. Listed in no paid order. Tools with no verified deal (including Make, Supabase and Cursor) aren't listed; most have free tiers on our price watch.
