Common questions about the YC deal
Who is eligible for the YC deal?
Y Combinator companies from the current batch and all alumni batches. Both packages are listed as deals on YC Bookface, so you claim them with your YC login and eligibility is verified on YC's side.
Can we get both credit packages?
No — it's one package per company: either $50,000 in fal serverless credits or $20,000 in credits for hosted model APIs. Each has its own deal page on Bookface, so claim the one that fits your workload.
What can the serverless credits be used for?
fal serverless lets you run custom models and inference workloads on H100, H200, B200 and B300 GPUs. Bring your own models, fine-tunes and training jobs, and leave the infrastructure to us.
What can the API credits be used for?
API credits work across every GenAI model API hosted on fal: more than 1000 endpoints for image, video, audio and 3D generation, all using a unified API.
How do I claim the deal?
Open the deal you want on YC Bookface — $50,000 for fal serverless or $20,000 for model APIs — and hit "Redeem deal". That sends the request straight to our team. Credits are applied to your fal account, so create a free account if you don't have one yet.
What happens after I claim the deal?
Our team reviews every request from Bookface and will be in touch over email to confirm your eligibility and next steps. Once you're approved, we apply the credits to your fal account and set up your dedicated Slack channel.
Do we receive all the credits upfront?
No. Credits are not provided upfront as a single lump sum: they are released in stages over the course of 1-2 years. Our team will walk you through the schedule when they reach out.
