- mario-stopfer 4y agoWow, thanks! That's quite useful! :)
- zenincognito 4y agoGreat article. The author would have also saved a lot of costs if he had enrolled in one of those startup programs. Some of the ones that are great include - YC's own startup program where you get links to deals - Segments startup program. Both of these give access to $5K in aws credit last time I checked. Plus it has free usage for twilio and stripe. First 5K ins tripe billing is free.
- mario-stopfer 4y agoHey Zeni. That's actually something I was looking into myself as well. I would have been happy to receive free credits for AWS but I assumed I would need to own a company in order to qualify for that. I on the other hand literally just sat down and started working. In any case, thanks for the feedback and if you have any other ideas, feel free to let me know.
