About freellmpool

freellmpool catalogs 22 LLM providers as distinct groups spanning recurring free tiers, keyless endpoints, finite trials, pin-only routes, and disabled candidates. It exposes 178 enabled chat routes and 431 cataloged chat models, and automatically pools only enabled routes you can access behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint โ€” as a CLI, a Python library, or a local proxy. It can start without credentials when an enabled keyless route is available.
