What the Baseten perk is worth
Perkstack estimates this listing at about $27.5K. Every figure on the site is an estimate of what the credit or benefit is realistically worth to an early stage company, not a quote and not a guarantee of the tier you will be offered. Providers routinely run several tiers, so treat this as the ceiling to aim at and check the program page for the current numbers.

- The same treatment on 234 other perks, each with a last verified date
How this listing is verified
A human last opened Baseten's own program page and confirmed this offer on Aug 5, 2026. Credit programs change quietly: tiers get cut, forms move behind partner referrals, and dead programs stay published for months. Perkstack rechecks listings and marks the ones that expire or change their terms, so the date above is the date the offer was confirmed rather than the date the page was written.
