4 APIs in this category require a free API key. This usually means creating a free account on the provider's website and copying your key from the dashboard. The process typically takes less than a minute.
Not sure where to start? Check the uptime column: it shows how often each API's documentation responded to our daily checks over the last 30 days, and the dot shows whether it responded at the latest check. For browser-based projects, check that the API supports CORS.
Yes, all APIs listed on API Bouncer have a free tier. Some are completely open (no sign-up needed), while others require a free account to get an API key. Free tiers typically have rate limits — check each API's documentation for specifics.
It depends on your needs. Consider: Do you need authentication or prefer no-auth? Does your project need CORS support for browser access? How many requests will you make? Start with a no-auth API to prototype quickly, then switch to a more feature-rich option if needed.
We run periodic health checks on all listed APIs. The "Status" column shows whether each API was responding at our last check. APIs marked as "alive" were recently verified. You can also test any API yourself using curl or our guides on testing APIs.
Most free APIs allow commercial use, but terms vary by provider. Always check the specific API's terms of service. Some APIs have separate free and commercial tiers with different rate limits.
