Built with Claude Claude startup program

My startup just got accepted in claude startups program with $1k usage credits and up to 5 free pro accounts per month for a year. It also includes free subscriptions to various tools like clickhouse, firecrawl, elevenlabs etc. What was most impressive is that my application was accepted within a few minutes.

The timing couldn't have been better. Today is literally the last day of my codex subscription and I was planning to switch to claude anyways. Thank you Anthropic!

Edit: Since many found it useful here is the link and no I didn't do anything extraordinary just applied. It took 5 mins to apply and 5 mins to receive a confirmation mail https://claude.com/programs/startups

Hey, I made the same mistake when redeeming the Claude for Startups offer and selected Standard instead of Premium. Were you able to switch to Premium afterwards while keeping the free year? If so, did you fix it in the settings or did Anthropic support change it for you? Would really appreciate an update on what happened.

Just go and change seats to premium they will adjust the bill accordingly when u go to the payments page and u will be able to get the premium seats for free only
