Anthropic Expands Startup Program With a Free Year of Claude Team

Anthropic expanded its Claude for Startups program Tuesday, offering eligible companies a year of team access and API credits to support products built with its artificial intelligence models.

The program includes Claude Team access for up to five premium seats and $1,000 in credits for using Anthropic’s API. Participants can also use Claude Marketplace to build plugins and book virtual office hours with Anthropic’s Applied AI team.

Companies qualify if they were founded within the past five years or received funding within the past two years. Eligible startups can submit an application on the Claude for Startups page.

Anthropic described the initiative as a way to support founders and developers building products with its models. The expanded program launched during the company’s SF Tech Week event.
