LLM7.io — free tier setup
What you get free
Trust warning first (from the catalog): operator identity, funding model, and prompt-handling policy are unverified. The gateway advertises free access to proprietary frontier models (Claude, GPT) — upstream provenance is unknown. mnfst claims "GDPR-compliant" but no published privacy policy was confirmed. The cheahjs list (which excludes illegitimate/reverse-engineered services) does not include LLM7 — absence is not proof, but trust is unestablished. Do not send sensitive or production prompts.
With that said: a conditional free tier on an aggregator gateway ("One LLM API... Connect to leading AI models with one endpoint"). Per the catalog: "30 RPM (120 with token)". Classified conditional_free — live /v1/models metadata describes "turbo" and "pro" tiers "with corresponding pricing variations," so the exact scope of free access is unclear and may shrink.

The rest of this guide — the key-obtain walkthrough, first request, the limits that will bite you, and the rotation runbook — ships with the Indie field library. What you’ve read above is the real first section, not a blurred preview; the remainder simply isn’t in this page.
