Terms read on 13 Aug 2026
$10,000 in credits over 12 months
Read this first
Credits are non-transferable and expire twelve months after they are issued, with no extension published. When the balance runs out or the year ends, the account moves onto the Pay as you go plan at standard rates, so the question worth asking before month eleven is what your record count and monthly search volume cost unsubsidised.

What the terms actually say
A flat $10,000 rather than a tier ladder, which makes this one of the few programmes on this shelf where you know the number before you apply. The bars are unusually loose: under seven years old and under $15M raised is late Series A territory at most companies, and existing free plan users can still apply. The catch is buried in the FAQ and costs people the whole grant: if you have ever redeemed any other Algolia coupon code, you are not eligible, so a discount taken at signup a year ago disqualifies you now. The credits also cannot be extended past twelve months, so a slow integration burns the grant on the calendar rather than on search traffic.
Who can claim it, in Algolia's words
Under seven years old, under $15M raised in total funding, and a new Algolia customer. Free plan users may apply provided they have never redeemed another Algolia coupon code, which is a disqualifier rather than a deduction.
What you get without this
Algolia's free plan, which covers 10,000 search requests and 50,000 records a month with no credit card required. Beyond that the Grow plan bills $0.50 per additional 1,000 search requests and $0.40 per additional 1,000 records.
We list a perk because it beats walking up to the vendor unannounced. If it ever stops doing that, it comes off the index.
