Anthropic has announced an expansion of its Claude for Startups program, providing qualifying companies with a free year of access to Claude Team, which includes up to five premium seats. Additionally, startups will receive $1,000 in API credits and access to Claude Marketplace for building plug-ins, along with virtual office hours with Anthropic's Applied AI team.
Eligible companies must have been founded in the last five years or received funding within the last two years. Applications can be submitted through the program's webpage.
