Fireworks AI has no ongoing free tier; what it offers is a credit grant that runs out. Inference platform for open models, with serverless per-token pricing and on-demand GPU deployments… Not verified — our last read, on 2026-10-03, could read no amount, tier or rate on the page. Compare with 29 alternatives in AI / ML.
Subtypes in AI / ML: llm_api — the vendor runs language or multimodal models on its own infrastructure and sells calls to them by model name; you send a prompt and receive a completion; model_hosting — you supply or select a model and the platform serves it behind an endpoint on hardware you choose. We read that on 2026-09-01 from https://fireworks.ai/pricing, where it says: “priced per GPU hour (billed per second), at the same price as Fireworks on-demand deployments” How we use this.
Fireworks AI has no ongoing free tier; what it offers is a credit grant that runs out: Inference platform for open models, with serverless per-token pricing and on-demand GPU deployments billed per GPU… We are not rating this offer today; this page's Last read note says why.
Inference platform for open models, with serverless per-token pricing and on-demand GPU deployments billed per GPU second. Fireworks offers $1 in free credits to get started. Accounts with no payment method, or with no credits, are limited to 10 requests per minute, and an account without a payment method is suspended when the $1 credit runs out until one is added. Serverless prices: OpenAI GPT OSS 120B $0.15/$0.60 (per 1M tokens); MiniMax M3 $0.30/$1.20 (per 1M tokens); GLM 5.3 $1.40/$4.40 (per 1M tokens); Kimi K3 $3.00/$15.00 (per 1M tokens). Batch inference costs 50% of serverless prices. Image generation and audio inference were deprecated on June 10, 2026. Fireworks removed these models from serverless in 2026, so serverless requests for them fail (dedicated deployments are unaffected), according to its changelog (docs.fireworks.ai/updates/changelog): DeepSeek V4 Pro (0813) (accounts/fireworks/models/deepseek-v4-pro-0813) on 2026-09-25, replaced by DeepSeek V4.1 Flash $0.30/$1.20 (deepseek-v4p1-flash); DeepSeek V4 Flash (0731) (deepseek-v4-flash-0731) on 2026-09-25, replaced by DeepSeek V4.1 Flash; GLM 5.2 (glm-5p2) on 2026-09-25, replaced by GLM 5.3 (glm-5p3); Kimi K2.6 (kimi-k2p6) on 2026-09-25, replaced by GLM 5.3 or Kimi K3 (kimi-k3); Kimi K2.7 Code (kimi-k2p7-code) on 2026-09-25, replaced by GLM 5.3 or Kimi K3; Muse Glimmer 30B (muse-glimmer-30b) on 2026-09-25, replaced by NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B $0.05/$0.20 (nemotron-lightning-3p5-30b-a3b); GPT OSS 20B (gpt-oss-20b) on 2026-08-27, replaced by GPT OSS 120B or Qwen3 8B; MiniMax M2.7 (minimax-m2p7) on 2026-08-27, replaced by MiniMax M3; Kimi K2.5 (kimi-k2p5) on 2026-06-26; Qwen 3.6 Plus (qwen3p6-plus) on 2026-06-26, replaced by Qwen 3.7 Plus; MiniMax M2.5 (minimax-m2p5) on 2026-06-17. Kimi K3 (kimi-k3) is the Kimi model on Fireworks serverless today.

How Fireworks AI compares against every one of the 29 we list, not against a selection of them. A surface with room for every member of a tied set may rotate their order. A surface with room for only some of them names none of them, because which ones it named would be the claim, and a claim seeded on the date is not the one we serve tomorrow. How we decide this.
