Introducing Zed for Education — Zed's Blog

Zed is launching a Student Plan that gives currently enrolled university students free access to Zed Pro features for one year. This includes $10/month in AI token credits, unlimited edit predictions, and real-time collaboration built into the editor. Students can also extend usage by bringing their own API keys or connecting external agents, with several providers offering free student access (Gemini, OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot). Alongside the Student Plan, Zed is introducing a Campus Ambassadors program for students who want to promote Zed at their universities.
