Databricks for Startups (Databricks + Neon)Mega
Data Platform
Up to $200,000 ($100K Databricks + $100K Neon)

Databricks and Neon run one consolidated startup program with a single application form. The maximum is $100,000 in Databricks credits plus $100,000 in Neon credits, so $200,000 only if you apply for both; applying for one side alone caps you at $100,000. The Databricks side covers the Data Intelligence Platform including Lakeflow, Unity Catalog, Mosaic AI, Databricks SQL and the Foundation Model API, and the Neon side covers serverless Postgres, AI Gateway, Functions, Storage and Authentication. Credits are applied to a live account, so you must create the account and put a payment method on file before credits can be granted, and the Neon account must be on a paid plan.

To qualify a company must have raised less than $5M in total, accept Airbyte Cloud's standard Terms of Service, and not already be an Airbyte customer. Airbyte publishes no deadline and no validity window for the credits, so how long the balance lasts is unverified.
