A CLI tool that tracks a large catalog of free coding LLM models across 20+ providers in real time, benchmarking their speed and stability. It lets users compare models and install the chosen one directly into coding tools like OpenCode, Aider, Cline, and Continue.

Use cases

  • find the fastest free coding llm right now
  • compare free ai model providers by latency and stability
  • install a free coding model into opencode or aider
  • discover free alternatives to paid coding assistants
  • benchmark deepseek kimi and gpt-oss models
  • set up a free model router for my coding agent

When to choose

  • you want free coding LLM access without paying for API credits
  • you need real-time speed and reliability comparisons across many providers
  • you use CLI coding agents and want one-command model setup

When to avoid

  • you need guaranteed SLA-backed production inference from a single vendor
  • you require fully self-hosted or offline models
  • you need a non-Node.js environment
