Braintrust for Startups

Braintrust is one of the most-used eval and observability platforms for teams shipping LLM products, and its startup program gives you 6 to 12 months of the Pro plan free — a plan that normally runs $249/month, so the full-year tier is worth roughly $2,988. Any new customer with at least $100k raised gets six months; startups at Series A or earlier backed by a partner VC (a16z, Accel, Greylock, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins) get twelve.

What you get

• 6 months of Braintrust Pro free for any eligible startup with $100k+ in funding
• 12 months of Pro free if you're Series A or earlier and funded by a partner VC (a16z, Accel, Greylock, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins)
• Pro includes $249/month in usage credits, 5 GB of processed data per month, and 50k scores per month
• Exclusive office hours with the Braintrust team
• Invites to Braintrust executive events and customer sessions

Eligibility

• New Braintrust customers only (limited exceptions for existing customers)
• At least $100k in funding for the 6-month tier
• Series A or earlier, funded by a Braintrust partner VC, for the 12-month tier

Apply at braintrust.dev/startups with your name, work email, and company website — applications are approved on a rolling basis. Apply before you start paying for Pro, since the program targets new customers.
