FAQ

The fine print, in plain words.

How does the match work?

Once you are approved, every top-up is matched dollar for dollar with bonus inference credit. Top up $10 and you hold $20. Top up $25,000 and you hold $50,000.

Do I have to reach the cap in one top-up?

No. The $25,000 cap counts bonus credit across all of your top-ups after approval, so you can top up $500 a month and keep being matched until the cap is used.

Are top-ups made before approval matched?

No. The match applies to top-ups made after your team account is approved. If you are about to make a large top-up, apply first.

What can the bonus credit be spent on?

Any model on the Inference API, at the same per-token prices as paid credit. Reserved lanes run on a separate platform with their own balance, so the match does not fund them.

Does bonus credit expire?

Bonus credit expires 12 months after it is granted. It cannot be transferred, resold or exchanged for cash, and refunding a top-up removes the bonus that came with it.

I qualified as an indie builder. Can I move up later?

Yes. When you clear another category - 100 monthly active users, $1K MRR, a funding round - write to us and we lift your cap to the full $25,000, minus any bonus you have already received.

Double your inference runway.

Apply in five minutes. Once you're approved, every top-up is matched until you reach $25,000 in bonus credit.
