Free tier	USD 500 of GPU credits for startups pre-Series A, academic research, or open source projects. Open source qualification is a public ML library, model or tool with a meaningful GitHub presence of 200 or more stars. The page prices what the award buys: H100 SXM 4.6h at USD 3.49/hr, A100 80GB 6.9h at USD 2.49/hr, L40S 13.9h at USD 1.49/hr, RTX 4090 and A10G listed as unlimited. unit GiB; metered on wall-clock; one-shot-credit

Identity	email An open source maintainer path needs no company and no academic email; the academic path does require an academic email, which is stated as an exception-free rule. The open source path needs a public repository with 200 or more stars.
Limits	write-gated The 200-star repository fails first for a new maintainer, and the amount, under 5 hours of an H100, is too small to be capacity even when granted. source The 200-star repository fails first for a new maintainer, and the amount, under 5 hours of an H100, is too small to be capacity even when granted.

Composes with	The vendor's own arithmetic is the finding: USD 500 is under five hours of one H100, so the award demonstrates an hour-rate rather than funding a run. It composes with the CloudRift grant only as two small separate awards to different accounts.
Reliability	no reliability event recorded
Notes	Recorded because the open source path is a genuinely different door from the company path in this class, and because the vendor publishes the conversion, which makes the smallness measurable rather than arguable. Whether Zylora is a reseller of another cloud's capacity is not stated on the page and was not established.

Notes	Two further tiers exist at $500 and $2,500 for funded or open-source projects. No per-GPU rate is published on the page read, so the credit cannot be sized in hours.
