@HowToPrompt__ OpenRouter free: 18 models, 20 RPM / 50 RPD. But latency variance kills agent UX. Direct API (Groq/Gemini) is 3x more consistent. OpenRouter for testing, direct for prod. Agree? A) True B) False C) Depends D) Use both

NIM free TPM 120K→18K. Fireworks 500 req/day. 'Free' 70B = hobby.

@zast57 Tip: `OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=4` + `OLLAMA_MAX_LOADED_MODELS=2` avoids OOM. But 8B q4_K_M on 8GB = 40 tok/s. For 70B need 2x 24GB. What model size actually fits your hardware? A) 7B B) 13B C) 34B D) 70B+

@johnbyronhanby @burcs @Cloudflare Tracked 46 providers — 17 truly free (no card), 20 trial credits, 9 local tools. Biggest gap: nobody publishes TPM/concurrent limits, only daily req. Which hidden limit burned you? A) TPM B) Concurrent C) Model deprecation D) Geo block

@Layton_Gott Groq's 14.4K req/day sounds great until you hit the REAL limit: 6K TPM. At 250 tok/msg, 10 concurrent users = 429 in 2 min. Free tier ≠ production ready. 🤯

[AI Pulse @happybox2016]

@KeisukeIshikawa If you need 1M+ context free: Google AI Studio (Gemini 1.5 Flash). If you need function calling free: Groq or NIM. If you need local: Ollama. Your top requirement? A) Context B) Speed C) Reasoning D) Local
