I have signed up for startup credit and want to fine tune phi-4-mini but don't have any GPU quota only CPU. There is no support email, tried to call MS and could only talk to an unhelpful AI assistant that does not understand natural language. AI is great but nothing beats good human support it is really sad the course of humanity

    Hello Evanuel Rodrigues

    Azure credits can be applied toward any Azure product listed here. This includes all Azure-direct models like Azure OpenAI GPT-series, DeepSeek R1, Llama-4-Maverick and more.

    Azure startups collaborate with the relevant Azure teams for all your resource requests. Follow the official guidance for requesting more quota. Next, sign in to Microsoft for Startups portal, open a support ticket, and include the Azure support request number so that we can coordinate with the right teams. If you’re already working with a Microsoft for Startups representative, you can simply reach out to them for assistance.

    Eligible startups receive direct information and invitation for additional benefits. You can always reach out to your Microsoft contact or reach out to the support team via the Microsoft for Startups portal to learn more or provide feedback.

    Thanks,

    Suchitra.
