Gotchas

Svix describes the $12,000 as $1,000 per month over 12 months, not a lump sum, so plan around a $1,000 monthly ceiling.
The $50,000 amount is only mentioned for companies in the current YC batch, not YC alumni.
Both limits apply: incorporated in the last 3 years and no more than $7M raised in total.
The redemption form is hosted on Jotform rather than svix.com; it is the link Svix's own page uses.

About the Svix program

Svix for Startups gives eligible companies $12,000 of free Svix credits, valid for 12 months and described as $1,000 per month. Companies in the current Y Combinator batch get $50,000 instead; the page does not state a validity period for the YC amount.

To qualify, the company must have been incorporated in the last 3 years and have raised no more than $7M in total funding. The redemption form linked from the page asks for your name, company name, work email, total funding raised (in $M) and company founding date.

The credits are for Svix's hosted webhook platform (Dispatch for sending, Ingest for receiving, Stream, and the embeddable webhook Portal). For reference, Svix's pricing page lists a Free plan up to 50k messages a month, Basic from $20 per month and Professional from $490 per month. The program also includes concierge onboarding with the Svix team.
