Two grand in Estuary Flow credits for real-time data pipelines, plus hands-on support for 12 months.

You get $2,000 in credits toward Estuary Flow's Cloud plan over 12 months—enough to run a modest production pipeline without paying out of pocket. Support includes Slack and email access to their team, plus live workshops and tutorials. Estuary handles real-time data movement from 200+ sources: databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB), SaaS apps (Salesforce, HubSpot, Zendesk, Intercom), and streaming platforms (Kafka, Kinesis). Outputs land in Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Iceberg, Tinybird, and others. The catch: credits expire after 12 months, so you need to be actively building during that window. This works best if you're already integrating multiple data sources and want to avoid the engineering lift of building connectors yourself.
