AI API Router Directory

Google Programmable Search Engine (Custom Search JSON API): programmatic web/image search results from a configured Programmable Search Engine. 100 free queries/day, $5 per 1,000 additional queries up to 10k/day. IMPORTANT: service discontinues January 1, 2027 and is not available to new customers — legacy pricing applies only to existing customers.

Free tier is 100 queries/day ≈ 3,000/mo × $5/1k ≈ ~$15/mo equivalent if fully used, but the free allotment resets daily and is capped at 100/day; not a purchased credit grant, so left null.

Hailuo AI is MiniMax's browser-based video and image generator, currently centred on the MiniMax H3 family. The generator form exposes 2K output, 5-second clips, an Omni Reference field accepting up to 12 reference images and a 21:9 aspect ratio option. Official pages state that new users receive free credits on sign-up, and a homepage banner advertises 3,000 free credits for downloading the companion MiniMax Design app; Hailuo also runs a survey task that awards credits. No per-credit or per-second price list was retrievable from the official pages.

Official homepage states new users receive free credits and a banner advertises 3,000 free credits with the MiniMax Design download, but no USD value or per-credit rate is published, so no dollar figure is set (checked 2026-09-16).

Hyperbolic (hyperbolic.ai) is an AI cloud that sells on-demand, reserved and private GPU capacity and, separately, a serverless inference API described as OpenAI-compatible at base URL https://api.hyperbolic.xyz/v1 with 25+ open-source models. Its official rate-limit table defines a Basic tier of 60 requests per minute available to a free account with a $0 minimum deposit, and a Pro tier of 600 requests per minute that unlocks automatically once $5 or more is deposited. Serverless inference is pay-as-you-go: text generation runs from $0.10 per 1M tokens for small models, $0.20-$0.40 for 32B-72B models and $0.30-$4.00 for 120B-480B models, with images at a $0.01 base rate per 1024x1024 image at 25 steps and audio at $5.00 per 1M characters.

Meta's developer site now fronts a single Meta Model API (documented at dev.meta.ai) covering Muse and Llama models: Muse Spark 1.3 for agentic and coding work, Muse Glimmer as an open-weight model for local agents, Muse Image, Muse Voice Transcribe, and the Llama 4 and Llama 3 families. The only unit prices published on the official pages that returned content are Muse Voice Transcribe at $0.18/hour for streaming transcription and Muse Image at $0.01/image; no per-million-token Llama pricing and no free-credit figure appeared there, and the llama.developer.meta.com documentation domain returned no fetchable content on 2026-09-16.

No free tier or credit is stated on the official Meta pages that returned content (checked 2026-09-16); the llama.developer.meta.com documentation domain returned no fetchable content, so no allowance is claimed.

Free personal-account boosts only (no credit currency documented).

Poe gives non-paying users daily compute points that reset every 24 hours, but no official page fetched states the daily quantity, and poe.com/pricing returns 404, so no dollar value is claimed (checked 2026-09-16).
