We get early-stage teams the credit applications nobody told them about (up to $150K), set up a production account, and stay out of your team's way. No 3-month procurement. No $50K minimums. No discovery-roadmap theater.
Three patterns show up in about 80% of the startup inquiries we get. If any of these sound like you, the credits + setup motion is the cleanest path out.
Your engineers are shipping product, not babysitting servers. You need someone who can stand up a real AWS account — networking, access control, monitoring, backups, runbooks — without you in every Slack thread.
You're paying 4–8x what AWS would cost at your scale. The math is obvious; execution is the hard part. Most teams stall here for a year because nobody has the bandwidth.
There's a public AWS credit page. Then there are the tracks AWS doesn't advertise — bigger ceilings, but you can't access them without the right relationship in place. Most founders never see those.
There's the public credit page (the one that caps at $1K–$5K self-serve). And then there are the bigger tracks — different forms, bigger ceilings, approved faster when the right people are on the other side. That's us.
We file the application. You write 4 sentences about your company, send a deck, and the credits land in your AWS account. Total founder time: ~30 minutes across two weeks.
Most AI teams pay OpenAI direct, watch the bill grow, and don't realize AWS has a separate credit pool we can unlock for AI workloads. We set up Claude on AWS with a credit-funded prototype budget — usually $10K–$50K of inference money on top of your base credits.
Tell us what you're building. We figure out which credit programs you qualify for and submit the applications. No technical knowledge needed.
Series-A health-tech, 14 engineers, $4K/mo on Heroku, 6-week pilot deadline
Hitting Heroku platform limits. Needed HIPAA-aware AWS setup before a hospital pilot launched. No internal cloud lead. CTO had spoken to AWS sales and bounced — too slow, too generic.
Production AWS account live in 9 days. $80K in credits secured (covered the next 14 months of inference + storage). Heroku bill → $0 by month 2. Pilot launched on time.
We use this to route you to the right partner — and to flag credit eligibility before the discovery call. Form fields are kept; you're not in a CRM the moment you start typing.
You fill the form, we kick off within 24h. Discovery call inside 2 business days. A small build is in production within 2 weeks; a migration is 6–12 weeks. The credit application runs in parallel and lands typically inside 2 weeks.
We file the application directly with AWS — you don't go through the public credit form. AWS reviews, approves, and applies the credits as a balance on your AWS account. They burn down as you incur charges. Total founder paperwork: ~30 minutes.
Yes, free. You get the credits + the setup + the migration work + zero invoices from us. The "catch" is that we work with credit-eligible startups, not arbitrary projects — so we qualify the fit before kickoff. If you're a fit, $0 to you.
Yes — that's often the cleanest case. A fresh AWS setup is our sweet spot, and you start with the credit buffer instead of paying for trial-and-error. Most "I'm not on AWS yet" inquiries are kicked off the same day because the path is simpler.
Tell us. We adjust or hand off. We track our own performance per engagement — repeated misses kill the model, so we stay honest about scope.
There isn't one for you. AWS funds the credit pool because they want startups on AWS long-term. The "catch" is that the bigger tracks aren't self-serve — you need the right relationship to file, and that's exactly what we solve. We file; you get credits.
