What the program offers

Bright Data AI Startup Program is built for startups where AI is a foundational part of the product, service, or business model. The program focuses on teams using public web data to build, launch, and scale AI products.

Program benefits include:

• Up to $20K in credits for Bright Data's web data platform.
• Office hours with solution architects.
• Technical training resources and support.

Eligibility

The program is intended for AI-native startups using public web data. Bright Data lists funded startups from pre-seed to Series A, up to $20M raised, as eligible. Bootstrapped companies may also qualify for a limited amount.

How the application works

Founders apply through Bright Data's AI Startup Program page and provide details about the startup. The flow includes a qualification meeting, expert review, approval email, credit-card setup, a credit code, and a kickoff session. Bright Data says most teams activate in about 7 business days.

When founders should use it

This is a strong fit for AI agents, enrichment products, research automation, market intelligence, training-data workflows, or products that need reliable web access at production scale. Founders should prepare a short explanation of the AI product, the public web data needed, current funding stage, and expected usage volume before applying.
