About this Deal

Cerebras offers a deal to Y Combinator companies on Cerebras Cloud, its LLM inference platform. The vendor FAQ states participants receive three months of Tier 1 access to a set of open models, and that the list price of those subscriptions over three months comes to $22.5k. This is rate-limited subscription access, not a $22,500 balance of spendable credits, so the headline figure is a valuation rather than a wallet. YC companies from any batch are eligible, and Cerebras states there are no setup fees. The deal also includes support over a shared Slack channel with the Cerebras team.

$500K+ in cloud credits

Greylock Edge is a 3-month company-building program from the venture firm Greylock, open to pre-idea, pre-seed and seed founders. Accepted founders get $500K+ in credits with AWS, Google, Microsoft and other partners, plus access to Greylock's recruiting team, AI researchers in residence and customer network. Greylock does not require an investment to join, and financing ranges from a priced seed round to an uncapped SAFE to no capital at all. Applications are rolling with no deadline, but Greylock states it works with only a very select handful of founders, so acceptance odds are low.
