The best way to evaluate Hober is to use it. The free tier gives you 40 requests per day across a selection of models from 7 providers — enough to build a prototype, test your integration, or explore the model catalog. No credit card, no deposit, no wallet. Just create an API key and start making requests.

Free tier models are backed by provider free tiers (Google Gemini, Groq, Mistral, and others offer generous free API access). Hober routes your requests to these providers at zero cost to you. When you're ready for premium models like GPT-4o or Claude, upgrade by depositing credits or connecting a wallet for x402 payments.
