What's free from Sail Research
Sail Research Free Credits · Free tier
$5 in credits every month to spend on open-weight models (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, GLM-5.3 Flash, Gemma 4, Kimi K3) via an OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible API, or on usage-billed Linux VMs (Sailboxes).
The catch: Card required to unlock the full $5/month, and accounts on promotional credits only are capped at a limited number of requests per minute.
- $5 in credits per month, shared between inference and Sailboxes
- The full $5/month needs a payment method attached; a smaller promotional credit comes with sign-up
- Accounts on promotional credits only are limited to a reduced number of requests per minute until credits are purchased
- Usage stops when credits reach $0; Sailboxes are paused, not terminated
- Each new Sailbox costs $0.01 on the Free plan
