Neo4j AuraDB Free is a permanently free tier—not a time-limited credit or trial. You get a fully functional managed graph database instance hosted on Neo4j's cloud with no expiration date, no credit card required, and no hidden upgrade pressure. When you're ready to scale beyond the node/relationship limits, you upgrade to a paid plan; the free tier remains available indefinitely.
Heads up: credit programs change their terms and caps regularly — confirm the current offer on the application page before you plan around it.

Final verdict
Apply — strong program.
AuraDB Free is a genuinely permanent, no-catch offering with zero eligibility barriers and instant activation. For any founder evaluating graph databases, it's a risk-free way to validate use cases, learn the platform, and build POCs. The only reason to skip is if your workload immediately exceeds the node/relationship limits, in which case you'd upgrade rather than abandon Neo4j.
