Google Cloud Gen AI $1000 Fast-Start Program

Up to $1K in credits

Some apply links may be affiliate. See our policy.

Grab $1,000 in Google Cloud credits to build with Vertex AI Agent Builder, plus hands-on technical support.

You get $1,000 in trial credits for Vertex AI Agent Builder—Google's no-code agent platform—plus customized workshops and 1:1 technical guidance on use-case prioritization and deployment. The credits are meant to let you experiment with generative AI without burning your own budget. You'll work with Google's team to map out what actually matters for your business before scaling. This is genuinely useful if you're past "should we use AI?" and into "how do we build this?" The catch: credits expire after 12 months, and they're locked to Vertex AI Agent Builder specifically—you can't redirect them to other GCP services.
