description: >-
  Daytona Cloud commercial offering. Daytona is a usage-based platform — there are no traditional named tiers.
  Instead, every customer pays per-second for the compute they consume (vCPU, memory, storage, GPU) with a $200
  free-compute credit on signup, an enterprise tier with negotiated terms, and a Startups program offering up to
  $50k in free credits to qualifying agent-infrastructure startups.
