What the Free API Limits Tracker — Free Online Tool does

The Free API Limits Tracker is a free reference page for comparing free-tier limits across major AI providers. It covers requests per minute, tokens per minute, concurrent request ceilings and whether a credit card is required to start. Developers and students use it to find a free API that fits a prototype without hitting a wall mid-build. The page needs no sign-up. Plugsky's own free plan includes 2 free models.

How to use it

  1. Note the limits that matter for your workload.
  2. Compare those limits across the providers listed.
  3. Check which providers require a credit card to start.
  4. Test your integration with a small script against one provider.
  5. Re-check limits periodically, because free tiers change.

FAQ

Why do free API limits matter?

Free tiers often cap requests and tokens per minute, and some also limit concurrency or total monthly credits. A prototype can work in testing and fail under a slightly larger load. Checking limits before you build avoids rewriting rate-limit handling later.

What is the difference between RPM and TPM?

Requests per minute counts how many API calls you can make, while tokens per minute counts the text volume those calls carry. A handful of long prompts can exhaust TPM while RPM looks fine. Track both and add retry with backoff for rate-limit responses.

Which free API has the best limits?

It depends on your workload and region, and limits change without notice. Compare current numbers on this page, then verify on the provider's documentation. Plugsky's free plan includes 2 free models with no credit card, and a 14-day full-access trial is available for heavier testing.
