## What it is
A curated, community-maintained index of 80+ free AI services covering chat, image, video, voice, and developer APIs, organized by whether signup is required. It also links to model leaderboards and hosts a companion web app with free AI media tools.

## Use cases

- discover free image and video generation tools
- compare AI model leaderboards
- find free voice cloning and text-to-speech services
