The Google for Startups Cloud Program offers startups with Pre-Seed to Series A funding (founded within the last 3 to 5 years, depending on tier) up to $350,000 in Google Cloud credits over two years. For AI startups, Year 1 is 100% up to $250,000 and Year 2 is 20% up to an additional $100,000. For other startups, Year 1 is 100% up to $100,000 and Year 2 is 20% up to an additional $100,000.
Benefits also include credits for Gemini and Gemma models, 12 months of Google Workspace Business Plus (separate application), monthly Google Maps Platform credits (separate application) and technical training. A smaller Start tier ($2k) exists for startups founded in the past two years with a working MVP.
Credits only cover Google-built, pay-as-you-go Google Cloud products, not third-party or Marketplace products. Acceptance is at Google Cloud's sole discretion and usually takes 5 to 7 days.
