Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

free
check_free_plan
Check whether a specific AI tool is free and exactly what its free plan includes: limits, catches, how to get it free, the cheapest paid plan and when it was last checked. Accepts a tool name ('ChatGPT', 'Midjourney') or website ('canva.com'). If the tool isn't free, says why and suggests free alternatives. Each tool comes with a link to its Free AI For That page, which has the dated source and the full free-plan details.
find_free_ai_tools
Find free AI tools for a task or need, e.g. 'remove image background', 'transcribe meetings', 'free alternative to Canva'. Returns tools ranked by how generous their free option is, with what's free, the limits, the catch, how to start and the date the free plan was last checked. Each tool comes with a link to its Free AI For That page, which has the dated source and the full free-plan details.
find_free_alternatives
List free alternatives to a paid or popular AI tool (e.g. 'Midjourney', 'Grammarly', 'Adobe Photoshop'), ranked by free value, with each one's free plan details and checked date. Each tool comes with a link to its Free AI For That page, which has the dated source and the full free-plan details.
compare
compare_free_plans
Compare the free plans of 2 to 4 AI tools side by side: what's free, limits, catches, how to start and checked dates, plus a link to a side-by-side table. Each tool comes with a link to its Free AI For That page, which has the dated source and the full free-plan details.

Free AI For That — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Free AI For That do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_free_plan, compare_free_plans, find_free_ai_tools, find_free_alternatives. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Free AI For That working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 15 of 91 checks got a reply (16.5%), average response time 335 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Free AI For That as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Free AI For That?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Free AI For That need an API key?
No. Free AI For That completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Free AI For That?
It answers our handshake in 335 ms on average, which is faster than 42% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
