FAQ

Can I use this for a commercial project?

The OSS program is for non-commercial open source projects. If your project has commercial users, check our regular pricing — it's already competitively priced with per-customer cost tracking included.

Is there a time limit?

No term limits. As long as your project stays active and open source, your credits renew monthly.

Do I have to add the badge?

No. The badge is optional and appreciated, not required. We believe in earning your endorsement, not demanding it.

What models can I use?

All models: Llama 3.1 70B, Llama 3.1 8B, DeepSeek-V3, and all future additions.

Build open source. We'll power the inference.
