Startup program questions, answered
What if I run out before then?
Top up at standard PAYG rates, the same per-minute pricing every Hega customer pays.
Will I be charged after the 12 months?
Only if you choose to keep using Hega and add credits. No automatic charge at the end of the program.
Can I switch between Core, Pro, and Studio?
Yes. Credits work across all tiers, you choose which tier each assistant runs on.
I'm bootstrapped, can I still apply?
Yes. There's no funding minimum. We care about what you're building, not who funded it.
