Project Summary

This repository is a curated list of products and services that offer free tiers or are entirely free for life. It aims to help developers, students, and individuals discover cost-effective tools and resources across various categories like APIs, AI, BaaS, databases, and more. The primary benefit is providing a centralized, searchable resource for free software and services, saving users time and money.

How It Works

The project functions as a comprehensive, community-driven directory. It categorizes free offerings by domain (e.g., APIs, AI, Databases) and provides a brief description, website link, and often details about the free tier's limitations or specific benefits. The organization into tables allows for quick scanning and comparison of services within each category.
