About Tinybird Open Source Program
Quick answer
Real-time analytics backend at 80% off for six months (then 20% forever) for active open-source projects with 25+ GitHub stars.
80% off a real-time analytics backend for six months — then 20% off forever — if your OSS project has 25+ stars and active commits. It's a discount, not free money, but for user-facing analytics it compounds fast.
What you get
- 80% off any Developer plan for 6 months
- 20% off ongoing after that for eligible projects
- Engineering support + co-marketing
How to apply
4 steps. The last one is the part most people skip.
- 1
Open Tinybird Open Source Program through the link on this page
It carries our referral tag. The terms you get are identical either way, and it never changes what this page says about the programme.
- 2
Have the eligibility evidence ready
Applications are checked against one condition — osss. Incorporation date, cap table and a one-line description of what you are building cover most of it.
- 3
Ask for the expiry window in writing
Tinybird Open Source Program does not publish how long the credit runs, and unused balance is almost always forfeited. Get the activation and expiry dates confirmed before you plan around the grant.
- 4
Know the rate you land on when it runs out
The point of a credit is a runway extension, not a permanent discount. Check standard list pricing for the usage you will have by then, so the first real invoice is a decision rather than a surprise.
