Product analytics, session replay, feature flags, error tracking and surveys in one open-source platform.

What's free: Monthly free allowances that reset every month: 1M analytics events, 5,000 session recordings, 1M feature-flag requests, 100K exceptions and 1,500 survey responses.

Allowances are per product and reset monthly; exceeding them moves you to paid usage pricing. Generous enough to run a real early-stage product on $0.

Deploy websites and web apps with previews, custom domains, SSL, functions, database and blob storage.

What's free: $0-forever plan metered in credits: 300 credits/month covering production deploys (15 credits each), compute (10 credits/GB-hour), bandwidth (20 credits/GB) and requests (2 credits per 10k). Unlimited deploy previews, custom domain + free SSL, serverless/edge functions, Netlify DB and Blobs included.

Hard cap — when the 300 monthly credits run out, the site pauses until the next cycle or an upgrade. Credit-based pricing replaced the old fixed quotas, so check the meter before a launch spike.

The deployment platform behind Next.js — hosting, serverless functions and edge network for personal projects.

What's free: $0 Hobby plan: 100 GB data transfer, 1M function invocations, 1M edge requests, 4 hours of active CPU/month and 5,000 image transformations.

Hard limits — hitting one pauses that feature (roughly 30 days); there is no overage billing on Hobby. Hobby is for personal, non-commercial use only; commercial projects need Pro.

Serverless code at the edge, plus KV storage, D1 SQL database and free unlimited static-asset hosting.

What's free: 100,000 requests/day and 10 ms CPU per request on Workers; KV with 100k reads/day and 1 GB storage; D1 with 5M rows read/day and 5 GB storage; static assets served free and unlimited.

Daily quotas reset every 24 hours; exceeding a quota returns errors rather than bills. Per-request CPU is capped at 10 ms on the free plan.

Open-source Firebase alternative: Postgres database, auth, file storage, realtime and edge functions.

What's free: 500 MB database, 50,000 monthly active users for auth, 1 GB file storage, 5 GB egress, 500K edge-function invocations/month, unlimited API requests, up to 2 active projects.

Free projects are paused after 1 week of inactivity (restorable from the dashboard) and have no automatic backups. Best for prototypes and side projects, not always-on production.

A reactive backend-as-a-service with a TypeScript-first database and server functions built in.

What's free: 1M function calls/month, 0.5 GB database storage and 1 GB file storage, for teams of up to 6 developers — with no inactivity pausing.

Free is a hard cap — no pay-as-you-go overage. The paid Starter plan ($0 base + usage) is where overage starts, and it requires a card.

Drop-in user authentication and user management for web and mobile apps.

What's free: Free up to 50,000 monthly retained users per application, unlimited applications, 3 back-office seats and custom domains.

The free allowance counts “retained users” (users active in consecutive months), not raw sign-ups. Beyond 50,000 MRU you move to paid pricing.

Feature flags and release management, with a genuinely free entry plan.

What's free: $0-forever Developer plan: unlimited seats and feature flags, 5 service connections, 1,000 client-side MAU/month, 5,000 AI config runs/month, 10M logs + 10M traces/month, 1 project with 3 environments, 14-day data retention.

One project only, and event/MAU allowances are sized for small apps and evaluation rather than production scale.

Collaboration infrastructure — presence, comments, notifications and multiplayer sync for your app.

What's free: A permanent free plan covering up to 100 monthly active users, with per-feature monthly caps (e.g. 2,000 comments/month) across presence, storage, comments and notifications.

Hard caps per feature; the free plan requires keeping a “Powered by Liveblocks” badge. Treat it as a prototyping and small-project tier — plan a paid tier before any commercial launch.

A managed MongoDB database cluster that costs nothing, forever.

What's free: M0 cluster, free forever: 512 MB storage, shared RAM/vCPU, up to ~100 operations/second — enough for learning, prototypes and tiny apps.

No backups on M0, shared-tenancy performance and a very small scale ceiling; clusters can pause after prolonged inactivity. One M0 per project.

Cloud platform for web scraping and automation “actors,” with a large public actor store.

What's free: $5 of platform usage credit every month on the free plan — enough to run small scraping and automation jobs each month.

Hard stop: when the $5 is used up, jobs stop until the next cycle; unused credit does not roll over.

The lakehouse and data-AI platform in a free, self-serve edition for learning and experimentation.

What's free: A permanent free workspace: serverless compute, notebooks, SQL and data/AI tooling — no cloud account contract and no payment method involved.

Daily usage quotas — when you hit them, compute pauses until the next day. Serverless only (no GPUs, no custom compute). Positioned for learning and non-commercial experimentation, not production workloads.

A hosted cloud IDE and workspace you can run real projects in, with a true free tier.

What's free: One free workspace per account: 0.5 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 5 GB SSD storage and 10 GB/month of outbound data transfer.

Read this first: the free tier exists only in some regions (EU1 / USE1 / USW1 — other regions get a 1-month free trial instead), and Cloady's docs warn that if a free workspace exceeds any resource limit, the whole workspace is billed. Treat the limits as hard walls.

Google's data-science platform gives every verified account real GPU time, free, every week.

What's free: Cloud notebooks with an NVIDIA T4 x2 GPU under a weekly quota of 30 hours, plus a TPU v3-8 pool of about 20 hours/week. Sessions run up to 12 hours (9 for TPU).

A verified phone number is required to unlock accelerators. Free GPUs are a shared pool — at busy times you may queue. Quotas reset weekly and unused hours don't accumulate.

The original free GPU notebook: open a browser tab and start training.

What's free: Free Jupyter notebooks in the browser with GPU access (an NVIDIA T4 when one is available) and Drive-backed storage — no setup, no payment. A Google account is required.

Google deliberately publishes no fixed free quota: usage limits, idle timeouts and GPU types vary over time and resources are not guaranteed. Notebooks can run for at most ~12 hours; heavy use can trigger temporary GPU restrictions.

A full photo editor that opens real PSD files — running entirely in your browser, free.

What's free: 100% of the editing tools (layers, masks, smart objects, RAW support, PSD/AI/Sketch/XD files), with no install and no account — files are processed locally on your device and never uploaded. An optional free account adds 0.5 GB of PeaDrive storage.

The free version is ad-supported (sidebar ads). Premium removes ads and adds storage and history steps — it does not unlock editing features, because none are locked. Generative AI features are limited on free (about one use/day).

The professional 3D creation suite behind award-winning films — free software in the strongest sense.

What's free: The complete application (modeling, sculpting, animation, rendering, compositing, video editing) for Windows, macOS and Linux, under the GNU GPL: free to use for any purpose, including commercial work — and anything you create is your sole property.

No usage limits and no account. The only license obligation appears if you redistribute a modified Blender itself (your changes must stay GPL) — your artwork and renders are unaffected.

The hand-drawn-style whiteboard for diagrams and wireframes that you can open and use in two seconds.

What's free: The full editor at excalidraw.com — free forever, no account: infinite canvas, unlimited collaborators via link with end-to-end encrypted sessions, PNG/SVG export, libraries, and 10 AI text-to-diagram requests/day. Open source under the MIT license, so you can also self-host it.

Free drawings save to your browser's local storage (no cloud workspace). Persistent rooms, team workspaces and extras live in the paid Excalidraw+ ($6–7/user/month).
