Six AWS funding programs
Comprinno can unlock for you.

Migration Acceleration Program (MAP)
AWS-funded program that provides migration credits, tooling, and dedicated AWS support for eligible migrations. Comprinno manages the application and milestone tracking.

Startup credits of up to $100,000 for qualifying early-stage companies building on AWS. Comprinno helps activate and maximise Activate benefits.

FAQ
Common questions
How do I know if my project qualifies?
Eligibility depends on workload type, cloud spend, company stage, and AWS region. Comprinno runs a quick eligibility check in the first conversation, with no paperwork needed.
Does AWS funding reduce our cost?
Yes. MAP credits, for example, are applied directly to your AWS bill. POC funding typically covers 50–100% of the agreed project cost. Comprinno tracks and applies credits as milestones are completed.
Can existing AWS customers apply?
Yes, for most programs. MAP is available for teams migrating workloads even if some are already on AWS. WAFR credits apply to any team completing a formal review.
How long does the application process take?
MAP and POC applications typically take 1–2 weeks once documentation is submitted. Activate is faster and usually takes a few days.
What is Comprinno's role?
We identify eligible programs, prepare the technical documentation, submit the application to AWS on your behalf, and track milestone completion to ensure credits are released.
