134+ Free LLM APIs, and How to Point Your Editor at Them
134+ free LLM APIs from 40+ providers, and how to point your editor at them.
This is the repo from the video, plus the exact settings that connect it to Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. Everything here is on a permanent free tier, not a trial with credits that run out.
The repo
github.com/open-free-llm-api/awesome-freellm-apis
It is a directory of free LLM APIs with the rate limit, the context window and a direct link to get a key for each one. It is updated continuously, so treat it as the source of truth rather than anything you copy out of it once.
Providers listed include Google Gemini, NVIDIA NIM, Groq, Mistral, Cohere, Cerebras, DeepSeek, Hugging Face, SambaNova, xAI and OpenRouter
