# Temporal Cloud for Startups

Yesterday, at our annual conference, [Replay](https://temporal.io/replay), we announced a new program, [Temporal Cloud for Startups](https://temporal.io/startup.md), to let startups gain free access to Temporal Cloud.

As a startup ourselves, we know it’s more difficult than ever to balance growth and efficient use of funding, while building a product that delights early users. 

__With Temporal Cloud for Startups, startups with less than $30M in funding can now access free Temporal Cloud credits.__

We believe the value of Temporal is well-suited for early-stage companies, letting them deliver more features faster and maintain application reliability while pursuing product-market fit. We hope this program and our support will help make you successful. 

## What does Temporal Cloud for Startups include?

The program gives you $2,400 in free cloud credits so you can conserve your hard-won funding dollars. The credits can be applied to cover:

- __Temporal Cloud Usage.__ Temporal Cloud delivers namespace-as-a-service. Our team manages your Temporal Server instance and all provisioning, sharding, maintenance, and uptime.
- __Support and services.__ Standard support SLAs and critical services like technical onboarding, code design reviews, pre-production meetings, and worker tuning to optimize performance.

## How can you join the program?
