An LLM API lets an application send a request to a language model over HTTP and receive a response. You normally need a base URL, an API key, and the exact model ID; an OpenAI-compatible client can then make the request.
What is the difference between a model provider and an API aggregator?
A provider develops or operates the underlying model. An API aggregator exposes models from one or more providers through its own account, endpoint, pricing, and usage rules, so the same model may appear through several different routes.
LiteLLM is an open-source proxy that presents an OpenAI-style interface in front of many model providers and aggregators. You do not need LiteLLM to call a route directly; it is useful when you want one configuration and endpoint for several backends. The GitHub importer keeps that route list in sync.
Where can I use these models?
Every tool below needs the same three values — API base URL, API key, and model ID — only the settings screen differs.
Linux
Windows
macOS
All tools below run on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
OpenClaw
Use an assistant for files, messages, and everyday tasks.
A chat window answers questions. An agent does things: it opens a browser, reads files, calls other tools and reports back. The model is the brain; the API key is what lets your agent borrow it.
Browser automation. Tell OpenClaw “check whether my parcel has shipped and send me the status” — it opens the carrier’s page, reads the tracking details and messages you on Telegram.
Tools via MCP. Hermes Agent connected to your calendar, Google Drive or home server can compare your week, move a file or restart a service when you ask in plain words.
Working in your files. Open a project folder in OpenCode and ask it to fix a failing script or explain an unfamiliar config — it reads the code, makes the change and shows you what it did.
A free route is enough for all of this. When one aggregator is busy, LiteLLM switches to the next.
Twice a day, we discover models directly from the aggregators' own API catalogs, such as /v1/models, and send real requests to the selected free model routes. We use API keys from dedicated test accounts that have never held any account credit and have never had a payment method linked: no credit card, PayPal or cryptocurrency payments. A successful HTTP status alone is not enough: the response must contain model output. A passing test confirms access with these unfunded accounts at the time of testing. We test each model and aggregator combination separately. Routes that explicitly require OpenCode or an agentic harness receive a separate test through OpenCode and are marked accordingly. Only successful routes are published. Account and usage conditions can vary by route and change over time. We regularly add aggregators to expand coverage; each scan discovers new models within the configured catalogs.
What happens when I click “Try this model here and now”?
The browser sends only a fixed route, question, and emoji selection. The server builds the request, applies its configured safety checks, sends it to the selected backend, validates the response, and returns the result. The demo shares one site-wide budget of 30 test attempts per UTC clock hour; failed upstream attempts count too.
Are these models really free, and what limits apply?
Every model and aggregator combination listed here passed a real test with an account that has never held credit or had a payment method linked. No payment or top-up was needed. Context and output limits appear on the model cards; request limits depend on the aggregator, model and account. Availability and limits can change.
Why do aggregators ask for a credit card if it is not required?
Aggregators offer paid models and higher quotas alongside their free offerings. Their dashboards may ask for payment details for those other offerings. Every model and aggregator combination listed in this directory was successfully tested without account credit or a linked payment method. Payment requirements for other models do not apply to the access verified here.
