How to apply for Twentysix Cloud Acceleratooor Web3 Startup Program

Prepare your project
Document your MVP, POC, or working prototype. Clarify which blockchain(s) you're building on and your compute/storage needs.
Submit application
Visit aleph.im or Twentysix Cloud's accelerator page and complete the application form. Include project description, team, and infrastructure requirements.
Await manual review
Twentysix Cloud's team reviews applications manually (timeline not publicly specified). Expect feedback or approval notification via email.
Deploy and launch
Once approved, receive ALEPH credit allocation. Deploy your dApp on aleph.im and begin using credits for compute, storage, and bandwidth.

Pro tip: Frontload your infrastructure planning before applying—detail your monthly compute and storage burn rate in your application to maximize credit allocation. Unused credits expire after 12 months, so plan your MVP launch timeline accordingly.

A no-strings Web3 infrastructure grant for founders who don't have VC backing but have a working prototype and a decentralized vision.SaaSTweaks editorial

Who should apply — and who shouldn't

Apply if

You're building a dApp and have an MVP or POC ready to deploy on a decentralized cloud.
You want to avoid VC dilution or institutional funding requirements at the early stage.
Your project targets one or more of the 7+ supported blockchains (Solana, Ethereum, Avalanche, Base, BNB, Mode, OP Superchain).
You need 12+ months of compute, storage, and bandwidth without upfront capital expenditure.

Skip if

Your project is pre-MVP or purely conceptual—program requires working prototype or POC.
You need infrastructure credits beyond 12 months or want long-term cost predictability; credits expire and require reapplication.
You're building on a blockchain not supported by aleph.im (outside the 7+ listed chains).

If Twentysix Cloud Acceleratooor Web3 Startup Program isn't the right fit, compare it against Akamai RISE, NVIDIA Inception, IBM Cloud for Startups, Datadog for Startups — or browse the full Cloud Provider Credits category.

Final verdict

Apply — strong program.

For early-stage Web3 founders with a working prototype, this is a high-value, low-friction grant with no equity dilution, no KYC friction, and substantial infrastructure runway. The 12-month expiry and platform lock-in are manageable trade-offs for founders who are already committed to decentralized infrastructure.

Frequently asked

Who's eligible to apply?

Early-stage Web3/blockchain projects with an MVP or POC. No VC funding required. No geographic or team-size restrictions stated.

How long do credits last?

12 months from approval date. Unused credits expire and do not roll over; you must reapply if you need credits beyond the 12-month window.

Do I need a VC sponsor or institutional backer?

No. The program explicitly does not require VC or institutional funding. Manual application review is direct.

What happens when my 12-month credits run out?

Credits expire. You can reapply to the program for a new grant, but there is no automatic renewal or conversion to paid service.

Can I combine this with other cloud or startup programs?

Not explicitly stated. Since credits are platform-specific to aleph.im, you can use other cloud providers in parallel, but this program does not cover them.

How long does approval take?

Not publicly specified. Manual review timelines vary; contact Twentysix Cloud directly for current SLA expectations.
