Free models
Models you can use without paying — free API tiers, free web chat, or trial credits
How to use these for free
These models offer a free tier: either a free quota on the official API, a free web/chat interface, or trial credits. Sorted by intelligence so the strongest free options come first.
Free quotas change often and may have daily/monthly limits — check the provider's page before relying on them.
