Overview
Requesty is an LLM gateway with an OpenAI-compatible API (swap the base URL to https://router.requesty.ai/v1 — no SDK changes). It routes a catalog of 600+ models from 30 labs, of which 12 are currently free to call at $0 input and output pricing. Free models run through the same gateway as paid ones, so routing, caching, fallbacks, logging, and analytics all apply.
Free Tier Quotas & Limits
- Free plan: access to all free models, 200 requests per day, no credit card required. Free models are rate-limited per organization: new organizations get 200 requests/day and 20 requests/minute; paying organizations get 1,000 requests/day and 60 requests/minute. Limits apply across all free models combined and reset daily; hitting them returns a rate-limit error on free models only.
- New accounts also include free credits to start routing immediately (amount not specified).
- Pay-as-you-go pricing adds a 5% markup over provider rates (0% when bringing your own keys).
- The docs note these models are "free for now" — pricing changes will be announced in the changelog ahead of time.
- Cached input tokens are not free on every model (e.g.
muse-glimmer-30blists $0.04/M cached,nemotron-3-ultra-550b-a55blists $1.00/M cached).
