Your first build

Apply for access

ZB Stack opens by application. Tell us what you want to build, and a person tells you which models your program sponsors, and for how long.

How to apply

Go to zbstack.xyz/apply and tell us about what you want to build. There is no wrong answer. A founder with a first idea, a developer with an agent, a company with a project and a government with a national plan all start on the same form.

Write it the way you would explain it to a friend:

  • What you want to build, or what you want your business to do next.
  • Who it is for.
  • Anything you already have: a site, a product list, a brand, customers.

What happens next

  1. 1

    A person reads it

    Every application is read by a person at ZB Stack.

  2. 2

    You hear back

    We write to you with your program: which models it sponsors and for how long. Sponsored models are free.

  3. 3

    Your workspace opens

    You get a workspace for your business, with your AI team in it. Your first step there is to describe what you want to build.

Programs and sponsored models

A program is the set of sponsored models you may use, and for how long. Sponsored models are funded by the partners of the Zero Build Foundation: AI labs, cloud providers and corporations. Work on a sponsored model costs you nothing.

Each program sets its own length, and you know it before you start. When a program ends, your business keeps running, and every task is billed at the model's own price plus 5%. See Sponsored models.
