Four tiers — Inspire for bootstrapped teams through Scale for fast-growing ones — with Atlas credits rising at each step. Includes Voyage AI tokens for embedding and reranking models, a one-on-one session with a MongoDB expert, and matching partner credits from Fireworks AI and Temporal for eligible startups. Existing MongoDB users can still apply, which is unusually flexible.
