TL;DR Hackathon organizer? Fill out the form, get approved, and receive a coupon code to share with your participants. Each participant gets US $100 in Langfuse Cloud credits per month for 3 months, and you can use the Langfuse logo in your hackathon materials.
What your participants get
| What they get | Details |

Participants can use Langfuse to:
- Debug agents by inspecting every LLM call, tool call, and retrieval step in a trace.
- Evaluate output quality with LLM-as-a-judge evaluators and datasets.
- Iterate on prompts with prompt management and the playground.
Langfuse also has a Free Plan and is open source, so participants can start tracing right away and add the credits when they upgrade.
What you get as an organizer
Once your credit request is approved, you may use the Langfuse logo in materials related to your hackathon, such as the event website, sponsor slides, and social posts. Download the official logos from the brand assets page and follow the guidelines there.
Your event qualifies if it is a hackathon, buildathon, or similar event where participants build software with LLMs.

Frequently asked
What happens after 3 months?
Participants roll onto standard pricing. They can downgrade to the Free Plan in Settings → Billing at any time. As no credit card is required to use the credits, users will not be charged once the discount runs out.
Does every team member need to redeem the code?
No. Credits apply to a Langfuse organization, and each team can invite all of its members to one organization. One person per team redeems the code.
Does the discount stack with other coupons or credits?
No. Participants need to choose one offer.
