Fifty grand in PostHog credits for year one, plus $25K DigitalOcean credits if you qualify.

PostHog for Startups gives you $50,000 in platform credits for 12 months to run product analytics without sweating infrastructure costs. You also get $25,000 in DigitalOcean credits through their Hatch program, some swag, and occasional founder spotlights. The catch: you need to be under 2 years old, have raised less than $5M, and sign up after January 1, 2023. After year one, you drop to standard pricing—there's no renewal mechanism, so plan accordingly. This works best if you're actively using PostHog for event tracking, feature flags, or session replay and need breathing room before you're paying full freight.
