About FreeTheAI

FreeTheAI is the community behind freetheai.org, a free OpenAI-compatible AI API. One free account and one API key give you dozens of models, including GLM 5.3, Kimi K3, MiniMax M3, Gemini 3.5 Flash and gpt-oss, with 50 free requests a day to start and no credit card. Linking your Discord adds 50 more. It works anywhere you can set a custom base URL: JanitorAI, SillyTavern, Chub AI, RisuAI and other roleplay apps; Open WebUI, LibreChat, LobeChat and Chatbox for everyday chat; and Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cline, Kilo Code and OpenCode for coding. The API speaks Chat Completions, Responses and Anthropic Messages, with streaming and tool calls. What you will find here: - Step-by-step setup help for your app, and quick fixes for errors like "No response from bot", 401 and 429 - Announcements when new models arrive or limits change - Model tips for roleplay, coding and writing from people who use them every day - Support tickets with staff for account and API questions - Channels in English, Chinese, Arabic, Russian and Spanish Getting started takes a few minutes: sign up at freetheai.org, confirm your email, create an API key, do the short daily check-in, and paste the base URL https://api.freetheai.org/v1 into your app. Tested guides for 24 apps are at freetheai.org/setup. Paid models and plans are on the way, and nobody needs to pay to use the free tier. Be kind, follow the rules, and enjoy the models.
