Free models

The free offer is a budget for model usage across the catalog. See Limits for its conditions and Connect for API details, where available.

Limits, in the vendor’s words

100 queries/month per account

60 requests/minute; scope not published

The Free plan covers all endpoints. Query packs are a separate paid mode and do not expire. Questions are limited to 2,000 characters and output budgets to 50–2,000 tokens; no token-based context limit is published. The public Playground has separate caps. Upstream model and data conditions are not separately stated. The privacy policy states “Usage logs are retained for up to 90 days.”

Where it is offered

The vendor names no country it keeps the offer from (source, read 2026-11-08).

Connect

• Base URL: https://api.miapi.uk/v1
• Key: MIAPI_API_KEY — get one at https://miapi.uk/signup.html
• Callable ids: miapi-grounded
• Note: Use the grounded-answer alias with /chat/completions. The official OpenAI SDK example uses this endpoint. Set max_tokens between 50 and 2,000 and keep questions within the documented character limit. Streaming is documented; function-tool compatibility is not specified.

Try it from your terminal with your key in MIAPI_API_KEY — it goes from your machine to the vendor and nowhere else:

curl -s https://api.miapi.uk/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MIAPI_API_KEY" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"model":"miapi-grounded","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"2+2? MAKE NO MISTAKES."}]}'
