Free AI APIs & Sites

This repository is a showcase of AI APIs and Websites that offer free usage of some/many AI models.

Warning

I, @zukixa, am the queen of zukijourney, but I am also the only one to actively maintain this list. We are not endorsing any of the listed services! Some of them might be considered controversial. We are not responsible for any legal, technical or any other damage caused by using the listed services. Data is provided without warranty of any kind. Use these at your own risk!

Overview of APIs

^{*: This list solely covers all providers I (@zukixa) was able to collect metrics in. Any mistakes are not my responsibility, as I am either banned, or not aware of x API.

Tier 1 -- Established, Premium-Service AI API Leaders:

Service	# of Users1	NSFW/RP Ok?	Open Source?	Owner(s)	Models	Other Notes
zukijourney	5225	Use /unf/chat... not /v1/	✅, Here	Our Team	Models	Largest & Oldest GPT-4 API still continuously around. Offers other popular AI-related Bots too.
NagaAI	3131	Forbidden	❌	ZentixUA	Models	Honorary successor to ChimeraGPT, the largest API in history (15k users).
KrakenAI	617	Discouraged	❌	PaniniCo	Models	Small, long-term stable API. Runs on https://poe.com
FresedGPT	455	Forbidden	❌	Fresed	Models	Small API maintained by a surprisingly commited dev. Good quality.

Tier 2 -- Standard, Basic AI API Services:

Service	# of Users1	NSFW/RP Ok?	Open Source?	Owner(s)	Models	Other Notes
Shard	735	Only OSS-Models	❌	Puzzy	Models	'Edgiest' API with a controversial/questionable environment. Good service otherwise.
Oxygen	1060	Donator-Only	❌	TornadoSoftware	Models	Stole Website UI before, current likely is too. Offended at jokes easily. Service probably fine otherwise.
ConvoAI	1333	Forbidden	❌	Niklas2290	Models	Owner parades under a egirl-account. The reason is unknown. Nuked competitor servers before, denies having done so.
ElectronHub	229	Discouraged	❌	snowby666	Models	Created by the new poe-api-wrapper maintainer. Alleged KrakenAI copy.

Tier 3 -- Experimental, Unstable, Open-Access AI APIs:

Service	# of Users1	NSFW/RP Ok?	Open Source?	Owner(s)	Models	Other Notes
Skailar	433	Forbidden	✅, Here	Aquadraws	Models	Ancient API at seemingly affordable cost. Service stability & maintainer interest is uncertain.
AnyAI	791	Allowed	❌	Meow18838	Models	Very weird owner, seems to try and sell you a lot of services at once. Runs https://llmplayground.net as well.
QuantumAI	163	Allowed	❌	FinFir	Models	Controversial Owner with "make-many-apis" syndrome. Questionable environment & behavior omnipresent in all affiliated servers.
ShadowJourney	344	Forbidden	❌	ichatei	Models	Very weird owner. Unstable service & stability, when present, is questioned by supposed fake models. Use at own risk.
ClashAI	868	Allowed	❌	InvalidSian	Models	API died 2 minutes after launch. Owner adamant it will revive. Unsure.

Tier 4 -- Potentially Misleading AI API Offerings:

Service	Why Potentially Misleading?	# of Users1	NSFW/RP Ok?	Open Source?	Owner(s)	Models
ShuttleAI	Now mainly focuses on own fine-tuned models, ignores "all other ones."	3669	Allowed	❌	tristandevs	Models
WebraftAI	Repeatedly accused of faking the top-tier models by even close associates to the owner. API Owner is MIA for weeks now.	1218	Forbidden	❌	ds_gamer	Models
Pawan	Does not provide OpenAI models. Only provides own RP-Models.	107169	Allowed	❌	pawanosman	Models

Non-Tiered -- Non-API AI Servers:

Service	# of Users1	What does it provide?	Other Notes
FreeGPT4	4817	Ancient community of gpt-4-free individuals. Plenty good AI-related content.	Ran by @lomusire
g4f.ai	14279	The OG server. Hub of the github repository that started it all.	Inactive

Note

A lot of the services also support specific models or higher usage rates for donators (such as us, zukijourney!), but we are just including the free tier here. Some of these services give you rewards over time etc., but I'm assuming here that you only have ~10 mins of time.
