The catch
Free plan stops at the daily allocation; going over requires the Workers Paid plan. How far 10K Neurons goes depends on the model (large models burn it fast).
What you get
- 10,000 Neurons/day on Workers Free
- Models include Llama, Mistral and DeepSeek V4 variants
- Beyond that: $0.011 per 1,000 Neurons on Workers Paid

All free tiers →Gemini API — free tier with Google AI Studio
The Gemini API has a free tier with free input and output tokens on Gemini 3.x Flash and Flash-Lite models, no card needed.
- Anyone with a Google account
- Per-project RPM/TPM/RPD, see AI Studio
- Catch: Free-tier content may be used to improve Google products; paid tier does not. Rate limits are per project, can change and are not guaranteed. Flagship Gemini 4 Argon is paid only. Upgrading to Tier 1 requires linking billing.
Cloudflare for Startups — up to $350K credits
Cloudflare gives startups $10K, $100K or $350K in credits for a year, depending on funding and partner backing.
- Early-stage startups; higher tiers need an affiliated funding partner
- Credits valid 1 year
- Catch: Credits run for a year. The $100K and $350K tiers require funding from an affiliated partner (VC/accelerator).
Groq — free plan, no card
Groq's free plan gives rate-limited API access, e.g. gpt-oss-120b at 30 requests/min and 1,000 requests/day.
- Anyone with a Groq account
- 30 RPM - 1,000 req/day - 200K tokens/day
- Catch: Limits are per organization and per model; the docs say exact limits are on your account's Limits page and there may be exceptions. Developer plan needs a payment method. Not suited to production. The docs table is labelled as base limits, so confirm yours.
Mistral API — free mode with included monthly usage
Mistral's free mode lets you create API keys and use a limited included monthly usage, no prepaid credits needed.
- Anyone with a Mistral account
- Catch: The docs don't publish the included usage or exact rate limits; they are shown in the Admin Panel. Verification steps (like a phone number) are not described in the docs. Upgrade and pay-as-you-go uses prepaid credits.
