How to get a free Artificial intelligence API key

Four steps from a blank editor to a working call, across the 13 Artificial intelligence APIs in this catalogue — all on a plan that costs nothing.

The steps

  1. Compare the options

    This catalogue has 13 Artificial intelligence APIs with a free plan. Sort them by endpoint count, latency or subscribers and shortlist two or three that cover what you need.

  2. Open the listing and subscribe to the free plan

    Every listing links straight to the marketplace page. AI Social Media Content Generator is the most subscribed one in this category, which makes it a safe first stop. The Basic plan costs $0 and asks for no card.

  3. Copy your API key

    The key appears the moment the subscription is created. It goes in a request header — never in front-end code or a public repository.

  4. Make the first call and check the quota

    The marketplace playground runs a real request in the browser before you write any code. Once it answers, watch the monthly quota: the free tier is generous but not unlimited, and every Artificial intelligence listing publishes its own limit.
