About
A directory of services with honest free tiers.
Generous enough to ship a real product on, not just demo it. 76 services across 16 categories, plus 7 curated stacks for common use cases.
What's in
Inclusion criteria
- The free tier must be production-viable, not just a 14-day trial.
- The pricing page is reachable and lists the free tier explicitly.
- We've checked the numbers within the verification window (currently 2026-05).
- Services that used to be free but no longer are (e.g. PlanetScale) are kept in the listing with a low rating, so you don't accidentally rediscover them.
What's out
What we don't do
- No affiliate links.
- Every outbound link is the bare canonical URL.
- No tier guesses.
- If we're unsure of a number we use a hedge phrase rather than a fake digit.
- No personal data.
- The site has no auth and no analytics that track individuals.

The catalog lives in data/services.ts and data/stacks.ts. Both files are typed against data/types.ts so TypeScript will tell you if a field is missing.
