How to apply for BlockPI Web3 Startup Program

  1. 1. Verify eligibility

    Confirm your team fits one of five tracks: funded startup, hackathon winner, grant recipient, public-goods project, or launchpad initiative.

  2. 2. Prepare application

    Gather project description, team background, use case on BlockPI Network, and funding/achievement proof (seed round docs, hackathon placement, grant award, etc.).

  3. 3. Submit application

    Apply directly through BlockPI's startup program portal or contact their team via official channels—no sponsor or referral required.

  4. 4. Await approval & activate

    Expect decision within 5 business days. Once approved, credits are loaded into your account and ready to use immediately for 12 months.

Pro tip: Emphasize your use of BlockPI's specific infrastructure (RPC endpoints, data APIs) in your application—projects with clear, high-volume use cases are prioritized. If you're building public goods or a hackathon winner, lead with that credential; it signals lower commercial risk.

Who should apply — and who shouldn't

Apply if

  • You're a blockchain/Web3 startup building on multiple chains and need reliable RPC + data API access without upfront spend.
  • You've won a hackathon, received a grant, or are building public-goods infrastructure—these tracks have high approval odds.
  • You want hands-on technical support and warm intros to VCs and blockchain partners alongside your infrastructure credits.
  • You're pre-seed or early seed and need 12 months of runway on infrastructure costs to focus engineering on product.

Skip if

  • You're a Web2 SaaS or non-blockchain project; this program is exclusively for Web3/blockchain startups.
  • You need more than $1,000 in credits or require multi-year commitment; the program caps at $1K and expires after 12 months.
  • You're already a BlockPI customer with a paid contract; this program is for new or pre-revenue teams, not existing paying customers.

If BlockPI Web3 Startup Program isn't the right fit, compare it against Cohere for Startups, Groq for Startups, Hugging Face for Startups, ElevenLabs Startup Grants — or browse the full AI Platform Credits category.

Final verdict

Apply — strong program.

Zero friction to apply, no VC sponsor required, and $1,000 in credits is meaningful for early-stage Web3 infrastructure costs. The 12-month window and bundled support (Telegram, feature priority, VC intros) add real value beyond credits alone. Ideal for hackathon winners, grant recipients, and pre-seed teams.
