How many credits do I get?
Your credit grant is tailored per project in your intro call. We size it based on your use case and expected API usage — there’s no fixed one-size-fits-all number.
Do I need to be VC-backed?
No. We welcome bootstrapped startups, pre-seed, seed, and everything in between. The program is open to any startup building with creator data.
What happens when credits run out?
Standard API pricing applies. If you’re growing fast, we can discuss extended support or a custom plan based on your trajectory.
How long does the review take?
Typically within 5 business days. Fast-track partners (accelerators and VCs) are reviewed within 48 hours.
Can I apply if I already have an Influship account?
Yes. Existing users can apply for the startup program to get credits and dedicated support.
What counts as a “startup”?
Early-stage companies building products. No strict definition — if you’re building something and need creator data, we want to talk.
