Updated October 2020
Finding the right products to use and looking for discount programs can be time-consuming. Here’s our tech stack along with discounts to save yourself some time. These aren’t affiliate links, just products we like.
Products w/Discounts
Stripe Corporate Card
If you use Stripe’s Corporate Card, there are a lot of discounts that come with it like:
- Airtable (database): $2,000 in credit for up to 5 users for 20 months
- Carta (cap table): Access to Launch and 20% off + waived implementation fees
- Gusto (payroll and benefits): 3 months free
- A lot more: Slack, Notion, Expensify, etc.
Some of their discounts aren’t as good as going through the companies directly—so double check before you use one.
