- free tier: a six-week equity-free cohort for AI startups: USD 500 of model-as-a-service credits on acceptance, 1:1 credit matching up to USD 4,500 for money the team adds, 20% off dedicated endpoints for teams with steady volume, a GPU voucher after completing the program (no amount is stated on the page), and partner credits the vendor totals at 'Up to $40K from all GMI partners'. The page says Cohort 3 credit terms will be confirmed before kickoff. | unit: hours | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: grant

- identity: institution | detail: admission is by application to a selected cohort of AI startups ('Apply to Cohort 3'); the application form's fields (email, company, stage) were not read: unverified: the form is behind the apply link.
- interface: rest
- limits:
  - write-gated (binding): cohort admission is the gate: an application ('Apply to Cohort 3'), a small cohort of technical founders (the page counts 25 AI companies in Cohort 01), and a team building an AI product. The 1:1 match is USD 1 of credit for each USD 1 the team adds to MaaS, up to USD 4,500, so the headline credit is not the credit received. [1]
- limits note: cohort admission is the gate: an application form, a selected cohort of about 25 companies a cycle, and a team that is building a product. The USD 4,500 match also requires the team to spend USD 4,500 first, so the headline credit is not the credit received.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
- tooling: not stated
- composes with: unverified: the page states a GPU voucher on completing the program but no amount, and says Cohort 3 credit terms will be confirmed before kickoff, so no GPU-hour figure can be derived from it.
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: The 1:1 match is credit given for credit the team adds to MaaS, not a grant. The partner figure aggregates credits from other vendors, so it is not GMI compute. The vendor's on-demand GPU rental is a separate paid-only offer and not part of this cohort. The page lists Cohort 01 as complete (Apr-May 2026) and Cohort 3 for Spring 2027 (Mar-May) with applications open on 2026-11-03.
