Overview

Unlock the power of AI with FreeLLMAPI, a revolutionary OpenAI-compatible proxy that aggregates the free tiers of 16 leading LLM providers into a single, unified /v1 endpoint. Effortlessly tap into approximately 1.7 billion tokens of inference capacity per month, leveraging a vast selection of models from industry giants like Google, Mistral, Cohere, and NVIDIA, alongside open-source powerhouses. FreeLLMAPI streamlines your AI experimentation by handling complex API integrations, rate limiting, and failover behind a smart routing system.

Key Features

• Massive Free Token Pool: Access ~1.7 billion tokens per month by stacking the free tiers of 16+ LLM providers.
• Unified OpenAI-Compatible Endpoint: Seamlessly integrate with any OpenAI SDK or compatible client by simply changing your base_url to http://localhost:3001/v1.
• Intelligent Routing & Failover: A sophisticated router automatically selects the best available model for each request, and intelligently fails over to the next provider if one is rate-limited or unavailable.
• Encrypted Key Storage: Your provider API keys are securely stored encrypted at rest and only decrypted in memory when needed, ensuring maximum security.
• Comprehensive Model Support: Includes major providers and their latest models, plus the ability to add any custom OpenAI-compatible local or remote endpoints (e.g., llama.cpp, LM Studio, vLLM).
• Advanced API Features: Supports streaming, tool calling, image input (vision), text-to-speech, and embeddings with robust cross-provider compatibility.
• Per-Key Rate Tracking: Monitor and manage token usage per API key to ensure you stay within each provider's free tier limits.
• User-Friendly Dashboard: Manage API keys, visualize your fallback chain, inspect analytics, and test prompts in a built-in playground.
• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Runs on any system supporting Node.js 20+, including Windows, macOS, Linux servers, and even ARM-based single-board computers.

Typical Use Cases

• Personal AI Experimentation: Explore and test a wide array of LLM capabilities without incurring costs, ideal for hobbyists and researchers.
• Rapid Prototyping: Quickly build and iterate on AI-powered applications by leveraging a vast, accessible pool of LLM resources.
• Cost-Effective Development: Develop and fine-tune AI features for your applications using free tiers before committing to paid plans.
• Model Performance Benchmarking: Compare the performance and characteristics of different LLM providers and models side-by-side through a single interface.
• Educational Tool: A perfect resource for learning about LLMs, API integrations, and distributed systems without the barrier of API costs.
