How to compare free-tier capacity before choosing providers with Omni Route

Check the dashboard's free-tier catalog to see how much usable free capacity you have.

Who it is forA solo builder or student deciding which AI providers to sign up for without paying for a subscription.

The problemFree tiers are spread across many SDKs, rate limits and terms, and it is hard to tell how much usable capacity they add up to.

The outcomeThe user sees the free-tier entries and monthly figures Omni Route computes, then chooses which providers to connect.

What you need first

  • Node.js/npm or Docker to run OmniRoute (both are listed in the README)
  • Accounts with the AI providers you want to connect, plus their credentials where required
  • A terminal and a browser to open the local dashboard

Steps

  1. Read the free-tier methodology in docs/reference/FREE_TIERS.md and the Free Tiers Guide at docs/getting-started/FREE-TIERS-GUIDE.md.
  2. Install Omni Route and open the dashboard at /dashboard/free-tiers.
  3. Check each provider's own terms, since the README says each provider controls its limits, availability and terms.
  4. Connect the providers you can use and note any that need a regional identity check.

Prompt for your agent

Using the diegosouzapw/OmniRoute repo, read docs/reference/FREE_TIERS.md and list the free-tier pools it describes for <provider or pool>. Report the monthly budget figures it gives. Verify that you cite the document and do not add figures it does not state.

Caveat. The README says the token totals are estimates across third-party free tiers, not a grant from Omni Route, and they change when providers change their terms.
