Free endpoints for the models build.nvidia.com marks “Free Endpoint”, open-weight models from several labs among them, called with a free NVIDIA Developer Program key at integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1 (OpenAI-compatible)
No card, but an API key requires an NVIDIA Developer Program account and phone verification in a supported country. Published ceilings can vary by model and traffic can cause throttling. Vendor forum reports describe new personal keys that can list models but receive 404 on chat calls; an issued key alone does not establish working inference. Model pages identify available and deprecated endpoints; copy current IDs from the catalog.

A million free tokens on each of its chat models in the Singapore region — Qwen, DeepSeek and GLM among them — valid 90 days from activation or the model’s release; OpenAI-compatible
Free grants apply in Singapore (international) only, independently per model and dated snapshot. The model pricing tables decide eligibility: Kimi has no free-quota column and glm-5.2-fast-preview has none. Account information must be completed before activation. After the grant, usage is automatically billed pay-as-you-go unless Free Quota Only is enabled separately for the model; that switch is disabled by default.

OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible gateway with a standing $0 plan: a rotating lineup of :free ids on a value-based allowance per rolling 7-day period, no card
Free accounts: 60 requests/minute; 1,800 requests/hour per account
Free accounts: 100 requests/minute; 3,000 requests/hour per IP
Enable explicit :free routes in the dashboard before calling them; the rotating model set is listed under Free. The dashboard shows usage as a percentage. Exhausted free routes stop instead of charging the wallet. Request-rate caps apply to Free accounts across models and API keys. “There is no limit on concurrent requests, on any plan.” “Free accounts: up to 4 MB (4,000,000 bytes).” Oversized requests return 413 request_too_large. Enabling free routes permits retaining prompts and responses for model or product improvement; upstream providers also process content under their own terms. The operator is Token Harbor PTE. LTD., Singapore.
