Startup programs: Google, NVIDIA Inception, AWS Activate

Hyv is part of the Google for Startups Cloud Program and AWS Activate, and a member of the NVIDIA Inception program. What each gives a small team.

Programs: Hyv is part of three startup programs, and its principles stay the same.

Hyv is part of the Google for Startups Cloud Program and AWS Activate, and a member of the NVIDIA Inception program. Each program gives a small team resources and guidance. None of them changes how Hyv behaves: private by default, consent before people, restraint before action.

The Google for Startups Cloud Program

The Google for Startups Cloud Program is Google Cloud’s program for startups. It supports members with Google Cloud credits, technical training, access to startup experts, and business support, along with a global community of startups, investors and partners.

The NVIDIA Inception program

The NVIDIA Inception program is NVIDIA’s program for startups. It supports members with developer resources and training, preferred pricing on NVIDIA hardware and software, and exposure to the venture capital community.

AWS Activate

AWS Activate is the Amazon Web Services program for startups. It gives startups tools, resources and guidance as they build.

Why they matter to us

Hyv is a personal agent that lives in the chats people already use. Every member's conversations, private browser and the work Hyv does for them have to stay reliable, private and separate from everyone else's. Technical training, developer resources and startup guidance from these programs help a small team like ours learn faster as we build.

What they do not change

None of the programs changes how Hyv behaves. What Hyv learns about you stays with you. Nobody can browse you, and nobody is introduced without two yeses. Hyv prepares, asks, and then waits for you before it acts.

What comes next

We are a small team, and we would rather show progress than describe it. When Hyv can do something new, it gets its own post here: what it does, how it works, and where it stops.

Thank you to the Google for Startups Cloud Program, NVIDIA Inception and AWS Activate teams for the support.

Private by default. Consent before people. Restraint before action.

Hyv is invite-only for now.
