Listed offer value
$200,000Pre-Series B, founded <10 yrs, paid-tier AWS account
Eligibility & conditions
Amazon Bedrock credits are not a standalone program. They come from AWS Activate, whose Portfolio tier gives pre-Series B startups up to $200,000 in AWS credits that are redeemable on Bedrock, including third-party models from AI21 Labs, Anthropic, Cohere, Meta, Mistral AI and Stability AI. Self-funded founders with no VC or accelerator link get the Activate Founders tier instead, which starts at $1,000 and goes up to $5,000. AI startups that outgrow Portfolio can be invited into AWS Credits for AI Startups at $200,000 and above.
