Overview

OrcaRouter Offers provides developers with access to a rotating catalog of free AI models at $0 per token with no credit card required to sign up. All models are served through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint, making integration immediate.

Free Tier Quotas & Limits

  • Base Rate Limit: 10 requests per minute (RPM).
  • Daily Allowance: 50 requests per day at no cost.
  • Paid Upgrade Tier: Crossing a lifetime account threshold of $20 in purchases increases the free model quota to 20 RPM and 800 requests per day.
  • Duration: No trial expiration. Models remain free for as long as they stay in the rotating active lineup.

Key Free Models

  • deepseek-v4-flash-free: High-speed reasoning and text generation.
  • hy3-free: General conversational and instruction-following model.
  • glm-5.3-flash-free: Lightweight, low-latency multilingual model.
  • orcarouter/free: A unified router alias that automatically dispatches requests to an appropriate curated free model depending on prompt complexity.

Smart Routing & Fallbacks

  • Free Models First: Configure routers to route incoming requests to claimed free model quotas before tapping paid credits.
  • Fallback Chains: Chain free primary models to paid base models to gracefully recover from upstream downtime or rate limits without unexpected billing.
