OVHcloud AI Endpoints (anonymous use)
OVHcloud No signup
The catch: Free use means anonymous calls at only 2 requests per minute per model; a key lifts that to 400 RPM but is pay-per-token and needs a payment method (OVHcloud AI Endpoints docs).
| Access | No signup |
|---|---|
| Free limits | Anonymous (no key): 2 requests per minute, per IP and per model. With an API access key: 400 requests per minute per Public Cloud project and per model, but keyed use is billed per token and needs a payment method on the Public Cloud project (Discovery-mode projects cannot use the service). No other usage limits apart from rate and payload size. |

How to use gpt-oss-120b and catalog
It speaks the OpenAI API at https://oai.endpoints.kepler.ai.cloud.ovh.net/v1, so the OpenAI SDK you already use works once you change the base URL and key.
curl https://oai.endpoints.kepler.ai.cloud.ovh.net/v1/chat/completions -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"model":"gpt-oss-120b","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'I want to use the free AI model "gpt-oss-120b and catalog" from OVHcloud (model id: gpt-oss-120b) in my project. Please: 1. Check the provider docs and give me the exact steps to get a free API key. 2. Give me a minimal working example that reads the key from an environment variable. 3. Tell me the real free limits and any catch (commercial use, card, data use). Listed limits: Anonymous: 2 requests a minute per model. 4. If the same provider has a more generous free option, mention it.
Before you ship on it
- Free use means anonymous calls at only 2 requests per minute per model; a key lifts that to 400 RPM but is pay-per-token and needs a payment method (OVHcloud AI Endpoints docs).
- No current AI Endpoints terms clause found on commercial use; the only AI Endpoints specific conditions found are a 2024 'Testing Phase' PDF. Model licence applies (gpt-oss-120b: Apache 2.0 per the OVHcloud catalog).
- Free tiers are shared capacity: treat the limits as a ceiling, not a promise, and keep a paid fallback.
