Frequently asked questions
How long do program benefits last?
6 months from the day Pro is activated on your workspace or self-hosted instance, for up to 25 seats.
Can an accelerator or investor apply on our behalf?
No, they introduce the program for their portfolio or cohort, but each startup may still need to confirm its eligibility and activate its own relationship with Plane.
I applied but Plane was unable to verify my startup’s eligibility?
We use the information in your application and your company’s public presence to verify eligibility. An inactive website, limited company presence, or incomplete or unclear business information may prevent us from completing the review.
If I work with more than one accelerator/VC, can I redeem multiple startup offers?
No. Each startup can redeem the Plane for Startups offer only once, even if it works with or is referred by multiple partner accelerators.
I submitted the application but haven’t heard back. What should I do?
Please allow 7–10 business days for our team to review your application and share an update.
Can I apply the startup offer to an existing Enterprise workspace?
No. The Plane for Startups offer cannot be applied to Enterprise Grid.
How can my accelerator, incubator, or VC firm become a program partner?
Please complete the partner application with details about your organization and its portfolio or cohort. If there is a fit, our team will follow up within 5 business days.
Will Plane invest in our startup?
No. Plane Startup Program is a product-access and ecosystem program, not an investment fund or accelerator.
