DevGlobe is independently maintained and free to use. GitHub Sponsors helps pay for the public infrastructure and maintenance required to keep the project available and trustworthy.
- Azure application hosting, storage, and observability
- Public developer-data refreshes and GitHub API-backed processing
- Security updates, testing, and dependency maintenance
- Documentation, community support, and open-source development
| Tier | Monthly amount | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Supporter | $5 | Sponsor badge and monthly project update |
| Builder | $15 | Supporter benefits and optional name recognition |
| Community Partner | $50 | Builder benefits and an optional linked logo |
| Ecosystem Sponsor | $250 | Community Partner benefits and a quarterly roadmap discussion |
Recognition is optional and published only with the sponsor's approval. Roadmap discussions provide context and feedback opportunities; they do not purchase product decisions or priority.
Sponsorship never influences:
- Developer rankings, scores, or search placement
- Profile moderation or verification decisions
- Introduction acceptance or opportunity matching
- Access to private developer information, analytics, or credentials
Sponsors receive no preferential access to developers. DevGlobe's public-evidence methodology and consent boundaries apply equally to everyone.
Actual recurring costs will be published here from provider invoices after the first reporting period. Account identifiers, secrets, credits, and security-sensitive billing details will not be disclosed.
| Category | Current monthly cost |
