Baseten AI Startup Program — Up to $27,500 in Platform Credits

Baseten’s current startup program offers accepted AI startups two separate credit pools: up to USD 25,000 for Dedicated Inference or Training and up to USD 2,500 for Model APIs. Baseten says the program is intended for early-stage companies where AI is core to the product, generally Seed through Series A, founded within the last five years, and new to Baseten credits. The program also includes access to startup-oriented support. The combined USD 27,500 figure is the sum of the two published maximum credit pools, not a guaranteed award. Applicants should use Baseten’s official startup-program form and wait for approval before assuming any credit amount.
