Every option in the catalog for when you need to call a hosted model from your own code — 14 model hosting and inference APIs, 11 of them free or freemium, with the pricing tier printed on every row.
Flocci AI Tools lists 14 of them, ordered free tiers first: Baseten, Cerebras Inference, Cloudflare Workers AI, Fireworks AI and Google AI Studio. 11 of the 14 are free or have a free tier. Each entry states what it uniquely does rather than a score.
None of these are marked fully free — they are freemium, trial or paid. The Completely Free AI Tools collection lists the 115 entries in the catalog that carry no paid plan at all.
