Reddit is currently split on Hyperagent's $1,000 signup credit offer. Half the threads call it a scam. The other half are deleted comments. We signed up, ran real tasks, screenshotted the balance, and read the terms of service — specifically §6.6, which is where the interesting part lives.
Here is what we found.
What Hyperagent is
Hyperagent is an AI agent platform — you give it tasks, it executes them autonomously using a browser and code environment. The $1,000 in signup credits is the current new-user offer. That is a real number, credited to a real account, usable against real compute.
The test
We signed up and verified the credit balance immediately after onboarding. The $1,000 appeared in the account dashboard within minutes of signup — no delay, no support ticket required, no "pending" state.
We then ran a representative set of tasks to verify the credits were functional and not cosmetic:
- A multi-step research task (web browsing + document synthesis)
- A form-filling automation sequence
- A code generation and execution task
All three ran. Credits decremented visibly and consistently with the task complexity. The platform is not vaporware.
The fine print: §6.6
"Credits expire 12 months from the date of issuance unless otherwise specified in a separate written agreement."
— Hyperagent Terms of Service, §6.6 (verified July 5, 2026)
Twelve months is a real window — long enough to be genuinely useful, short enough to matter if you sign up and forget about it. The expiry is not buried; it is in the standard terms at a findable section number. We are citing it here because "free credits" with an expiry that you don't know about is the most common way a LEGIT offer becomes a CAVEATS one in practice.
There is no published conversion rate between credits and compute time in a way that lets you predict exactly how many tasks $1,000 covers — usage varies by task complexity. This is a real limitation. Budget conservatively if you are planning a specific project around the credit balance.
The lookalike problem
Before you sign up: the canonical domain is hyperagent.com. There is also a hyperagents.online (plural, different TLD) with a low trust score on Scamadviser. Half of the "is this a scam?" discourse online is people who landed on the wrong domain. The referral link in this post resolves to hyperagent.com — verify the URL bar before you enter anything.
Verdict
LEGIT. The $1,000 is real, the platform works, and the terms are findable. The caveats — expiry in §6.6, no hard per-task cost table — are real but not disqualifying. Sign up with your eyes open to the 12-month clock.
