Re:Ask HN: Is there any free, rate limited and no key AI API? on Wednesday April 22, 2026 @09:12AM (#47863088)
Google AI Studio provides free access to older Gemini models I believe

Also, OpenRouter provides a list of free models: https://openrouter.ai/collections/free-models

SciChart founder here, we've added ChartGPU vs. SciChart to our performance test suite - it holds up pretty well, but SciChart still about an order of magnitude faster

Since the API is so new there may be some errors in the test suite, feel free to correct them

Innovation like this is fantastic btw and is good for the community! WebGPU is an awesome technology. So, this not only pushes us to be better but also consider how to add value to customers/users
