As recorded at collection: 10 million free tokens for new Jina AI signups

Jina AI's free tokens are a shared usage allowance across all Search Foundation products. They can be used across Embeddings, which converts sentences into numbers for search, Reranker, which reorders search results, Reader, which turns web page URLs into readable text, Classifier, which classifies documents, and Fine-tuning, which supports custom training. Tokens are not allocated separately to each product, so users decide how much to use for each feature.

All new users receive 10 million tokens, and an API key, the authentication string required to use the service, is generated automatically as soon as they sign up. No credit card is required. The same key can be used across all Search Foundation products. Sign-up difficulty is 1 out of 5, making it one of the easiest.

Reader can be used without an API key, but its hourly throughput limit is lower than when using a key, so it is suitable for one-off tasks such as turning a single web page URL into a document. The free key can process only 2 requests at a time, so keep this limit in mind when processing large volumes at once. No separate expiration date has been stated.
