🎯 Why This Directory?

Finding genuine, working free AI APIs is frustrating. Most online lists are full of dead links, expired 2023 promotional codes, or fake model claims.

  • Every single link is live-checked via automated HTTP probes and browser render.
  • Real, verified 2026 models (Gemini 2.5/3.1, GPT-OSS 120B, Qwen 3.8, DeepSeek V4.1, Claude Fable/Opus, etc.).
  • Base URLs included with 1-click copy for OpenAI-compatible client libraries.
  • Zero telemetry or tracking — direct official console links.
