Free ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT and DeepSeek API Keys: A Developer's Unexpected Toolkit

If you've ever wanted to experiment with OpenAI's ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT or DeepSeek's models but hit a wall with API costs or waiting lists, there's a GitHub project you should know about. It’s not an official offering, but rather a clever community-built proxy that provides free access to these powerful language models.

This isn't about häçking or exploiting loopholes. It's about a developer-friendly gateway that lowers the barrier to entry, making it incredibly easy to start building AI-powered features into your projects without immediately reaching for your wallet.

What It Does

The GPT_API_free project is essentially a reverse proxy server. It acts as a middleman between your application and the AI models. You send your API requests to this proxy, and it forwards them to the model providers, handling the authentication with its own pool of keys.

The key takeaway? You can use the familiar OpenAI SDK and API structure, but just change the base URL to point to this free service. This means existing code and libraries can often work with minimal modification.

Why It's Cool

The cleverness here is in the implementation and the immediate utility it provides.

  • Zero-Cost Experimentation: This is the biggest win. You can prototype that chatbot, build a code assistant, or test a summarization feature without any financial commitment. It’s perfect for learning, häçkathons, or proving a concept.
  • Familiar Developer Experience: You don't have to learn a brand new SDK. If you're already comfortable with the OpenAI client library, you're 90% of the way there. Just swap the endpoint and you're off to the races.
  • Dual-Model Access: It provides access to both ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT (GPT-3.5-Turbo) and DeepSeek's models from a single endpoint. This lets you compare outputs and performance between two different powerful AI systems.
  • Community-Powered: Projects like this thrive on community support. It’s a shared resource that demonstrates a collective desire for more accessible AI tools.
How to Try It

Getting started is straightforward. You'll need to get a free token from the project's official website, which you can find linked from the GitHub repository.

Once you have your token, using it is a matter of pointing your API calls to the correct base URL. Here's a quick example using the OpenAI JavaScript SDK:
import OpenAI from 'openai';

// Configure the client to use the free API proxy
const openai = new OpenAI({
apiKey: 'YOUR_FREE_TOKEN_HERE', // Get this from the project's site
baseURL: 'You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.'
});

// Now make calls as you normally would!
const completion = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: 'gpt-3.5-turbo',
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello, world!' }],
});

console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Remodded channel yan ng "chatanywhere" with free limited use - but at least free. Galante na nga ngayon (200 RPD) siya sa selected free models - hindi sa lahat. Ang alam ko yung api is geo-based - FYI. Any chat app that accepts custom OpenAI endpoints can use their api key. Yung akin, yon pa rin yung api key for + 3-yrs na, he he. Itong base url ang gamit ko: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. or You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.
Note: The free account is limited to use deepseek-r1, deepseek-v3, gpt-3.5-turbo, gpt-4o-mini, gpt-4o and embeddings (as of this time, as per error warning). Pag nilagay ko naman yung gpt-5.1, pasok naman, at ang response nya ay it's using gpt-4.1 family - pero sa usage query ko ay yung model nila na gpt-5.1-ca yung gamit (?) na counted as 1 request sa aking 4 requests ngayon to test it again. Obserbahan nyo na lang yung behavior at request counter/day using gpt-5.x series.

Usage Details
To use the ChatAnywhere API, you typically set the base URL (or API endpoint) in your application's configuration or code:
  • API Endpoint: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.
  • Specific Endpoint for Chat Completions: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.

Provided naman yung compatible apps para gamitin siya sa inyong browser directly - na nasa baba ng source link.
Sa'kin, working siya using Harpa AI addon din using the free models. Clone nyo na lang yung api for each model you like to use or just change the models as you wish. Kahit sa ChatGPTBox addon, working din using chat completions. Hanap kayo ng app na may real time access sa device/location, as well web search and even browsing feature para complete yung results. Yang gpt-4o family pataas ay multimodal models designed to be bridged to other tools through functiom calling para ma-access yung "current events". Kung wala, di yan makakapagbigay ng real time results - maging oras, taon or location. Yung LLMs at GPTs, kalimitan ay yung utak nila lang yung magagamit natin na existing sa kanilang updated models - basic for chat/conversation or text generation.

Backup nyo yung Openrouter api at 200 rpd din yung free models nila.

Ckick nyo yung "Query usage" sa taas, tapos enter nyo yung api key sa baba

Ito yung infos sa deepseek, old gpt-4o series at newer models para magamit ninyo ng maayos:


In 2026, DeepSeek offers several models with advanced internal reasoning and integrated search, primarily through its V3 and R-series lines.DeepSeek Models with Reasoning and SearchDeepSeek-V3.2 & V3.2-Speciale: These are the primary 2026 models featuring "Thinking in Tool-Use." This capability allows the model to generate an internal reasoning path before calling external tools like web search APIs, and then verify or self-correct based on the search results.DeepSeek-R1 and R2 (Pro): These are "reasoning-first" models that use long Chain-of-Thought (CoT) to solve complex problems. While the R1 series (released in 2025) focused on logic, math, and coding, the DeepSeek-R2 (Pro) released in 2026 is designed to compete directly with GPT-5 in multilingual logic and deep reasoning.DeepSeek-V3.1 (Hybrid Mode): This model introduced a versatile "Thinking" toggle, allowing it to switch between a fast direct-answer mode and a deep-reasoning mode (similar to R1) within a single model.DeepSeek-Reasoner: A specialized API endpoint optimized specifically for complex, multi-step logical tasks, providing users access to the generated CoT content for transparency.
Integrated Search Capabilities
Unlike pure reasoning models that are offline, DeepSeek's consumer-facing versions (V3, V3.1, V3.2) integrate web search directly into their interfaces and API workflows:
  • Search Agent Benchmarks: Recent versions have been optimized to outperform earlier iterations in "search agent" tasks, meaning they are better at strategically using search to find and cite information.
  • Tool Integration: The models can now integrate search as part of their internal "thinking" phase, verifying search findings against their internal logic before providing a final response.
DeepSeek models are generally noted for their extreme efficiency, often matching the performance of much larger proprietary models like GPT-5 while using significantly fewer active parameters through a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture.

In 2026, the older GPT-4o and GPT-4o-mini models are categorized as "standard" or "fast" models, distinguishing them from the newer "o-series" reasoning models.

Search and Reasoning Comparison


Reasoning TypeSingle-pass / Pattern-based: Processes input and generates text instantly without a hidden "thinking" phase.Chain-of-Thought (CoT): Generates hidden "reasoning tokens" to solve complex logic before responding.
Integrated SearchTool-based Search: Accesses the web via a browse tool but does not "reason" through the search results internally before providing a final answer.Agentic Search: Can use search within its reasoning phase to self-correct and verify facts before the user sees the output.
Primary UseSpeed, creative writing, and multimodal tasks (voice/vision).Complex math, coding, and scientific logic.




Key Takeaways for Older Models
  • GPT-4o: Remains a top choice for general Q&A and creative writing because its single-pass nature makes it faster and often "more human-like" in its prose compared to the rigid logic of reasoning models.
  • GPT-4o-mini: Primarily used as a cost-efficient "light" model for simple tasks. While it scores high on reasoning benchmarks (like MMLU), it lacks the internal step-by-step thinking that allows o-series models to solve truly complex, multi-layered problems.
  • Prompting Difference: To get "reasoning" from GPT-4o, you must explicitly prompt it to "think step-by-step". In contrast, models like o3 and o4-mini do this automatically and internally.
In 2026, OpenAI's GPT-5 and OpenAI o-series models are the primary systems featuring internal reasoning and integrated search capabilities. Unlike previous "fast" models, these reasoning models utilize a hidden internal chain-of-thought to process complex tasks before generating a response.
The specific models with these features include:

Reasoning & Integrated Search Models
  • GPT-5 Series (Flagship): The flagship GPT-5 (including GPT-5.2, GPT-5.1, and the Pro versions) is a unified system that uses a real-time router to decide when to employ "thinking" for harder problems. It features built-in tools like web search, file search, and a Python interpreter that it can strategically call during its reasoning process.
  • OpenAI o3 and o4-mini: These are the most advanced "o-series" reasoning models. They can agentically use and combine every tool within ᑕᕼᗩTGᑭT—including web search and image generation—within their chain-of-thought to solve multi-faceted questions.
  • Deep Research Models: Specialized versions like o3-deep-research and o4-mini-deep-research are optimized for long-running, in-depth investigations, often analyzing hundreds of online sources to produce a research analyst-level report.
  • gpt-oss (Open-Weight): OpenAI also offers open-weight reasoning models (gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b) that support native tool use, including browsing, while providing full access to their internal chain-of-thought.

Key Characteristics
  • Internal Chain-of-Thought (CoT): These models generate "reasoning tokens" that are hidden from the user but allow the model to plan and self-correct.
  • Reasoning Effort Control: Most of these models (GPT-5, o3, o4-mini) allow users to adjust the "reasoning effort" parameter (e.g., minimal, low, medium, high) to balance response depth with speed and cost.
  • Agentic Search: Instead of just performing a one-time search, these models can pivot their search strategy based on the information they find, trying new queries if more information is needed.

Ayos gamitin yung api using py-gpt: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.
Mas efficient kaysa sa mga simple apps nila. Sulit gamitin sa free models for real time results. Multi-platform naman siya.
Sa'kin, sa desktop mode yung choice ko. Ilagay nyo yung api endpoint na: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.. Tapos yung api key nyo (using the compatible custom openai api option feature). May libre pa kayong plugins dyan. Advanatge din kung may api keys kayo sa ibang providers. Sulit for any type of AI work. One-click install pa.
