Free AI Models
Every genuinely-free AI model & API (open-weight, free tiers, and no-signup tools), ranked by the community. Each row shows how to use it, how it performs, the free limits, and the catch. No paywalls, no shared keys, no trial-credit traps.

The monthly Free-Models update
What’s newly free, what got nerfed, what to switch to. One email a month.
How we rank & verify. Listings are ordered by community upvotes (one vote per model per device, no login); ties fall back to our performance estimate. Performance is a composite estimate from public benchmarks (LMArena, SWE-bench, MTEB) and provider specs; unknowns are marked “unrated”. “Free” claims and limits are re-checked periodically and dated per row.
