This looks awesome, but sadly, your education plan is practically unusable for most of Latin America, where .edu (or .ac) email addresses are very rare. I'm a college student and I can't apply because my university uses our country TLD.
I hope you can reconsider this policy and begin using university domain lists [1] instead of just checking for TLDs.
[1]: See https://github.com/Hipo/university-domains-list https://github.com/Hipo/university-domains-list, by example.

- abelsm 5y agoThanks for your feedback! The reason we don't have this yet is only because we're a small team, but we're growing and will definitely have NGO/non-profit discounts!
- agucova 5y agoThank you! I did notice the regional discount, which I really appreciate (not sure if it's based on PPPs, but it's refreshing to see from LatAm).
- abelsm 5y agoWe're allow-listing domains for any educational institutions that's not on our list. Thanks for sending that link, we'll take a look!
