Stop Grant-Hopping. Start Building.
Real pricing from day one. Cashback-style grants that grow with you. No migrations, no surprises, no credit cliffs.
Why Growing Startups Choose Gcore
Real Partnership
No bait-and-switch. Great pricing from day one with cashback grants that match your spend. Build for the long term, not the next promo code.
Global Scale
210+ PoPs worldwide. Deploy AI and edge infrastructure in 30ms from your users. Enterprise-grade performance without enterprise barriers.
Zero Lock-In
Transparent pricing, hourly billing, instant launch. Move fast without betting everything on one vendor. Your infrastructure, your control.
The Grant Cycle is Broken
You get credits
Sign up for cloud credits, excited to build your product with "free" infrastructure.
You build and scale
Architect your system, onboard users, build dependencies on the platform.
Credits run out
Free tier expires. Real pricing kicks in. Suddenly costs are 3-5x what you planned.
You migrate everything
Scramble to find new credits. Re-architect. Migrate databases. Break things. Lose momentum.
Repeat the cycle
Same game, different provider. Each migration costs time, continuity, and user trust.
We break the cycle
Transparent pricing from day one. Spend $1, get $1 back as grant credit. Scale smoothly with predictable costs.

FAQ
How does the cashback grant program work?
Every dollar you spend on Gcore infrastructure gets matched with grant credits. It works like cashback - the more you use, the more you save. There are no cliffs, expirations, or surprise price increases. You see real pricing from day one, and grants help cushion your growth phase. This model rewards actual usage instead of forcing migration cycles.
What is included in the startup program?
You get instant access to the entire Gcore stack: AI infrastructure with A100/H100 GPUs, edge network across 210+ global locations, DDoS protection, WAAP security, CDN, cloud compute, and object storage. No gatekeeping or tiered access. Apply once and use everything immediately with transparent, usage-based pricing.
How is this different from AWS, Google, or Azure credits?
Hyperscaler credit programs offer free tiers that expire, forcing migration or massive price increases. We show real pricing upfront and match your spend with cashback-style grants. No bait-and-switch. You build on predictable costs, not promotional pricing that disappears when you need it most.
Can I migrate from OpenAI API to Gcore?
Yes. We support all major open-source models (Mistral, LLaMA, Claude, Falcon) with our inference platform. Deploy in 3 clicks, pay up to 5x less than OpenAI API, and keep full control of your data. Our team helps with migration planning and provides support throughout the process.
What kind of support do startups get?
You get 24/7 access to real engineers who understand AI infrastructure, not ticket systems. Our team responds in minutes, not days. We speak latency, tokens, and batch throughput. You also get dedicated account support, architecture reviews, and help scaling your infrastructure as you grow.
