Stop Paying for Claude!! Use this to unlock it for FREE — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Here's a weird thing about AI right now.
- 0:02There are three or four models at the
- 0:04top. Claude, GPT, Gemini, all genuinely
- 0:07great. But the app a lot of people have
- 0:10built their workflow around is Claude.
- 0:12The projects, the artifacts, the thing
- 0:14that can actually touch files on your
- 0:16computer. Once you're in it, you don't
- 0:18want to leave. But Anthropic put a meter
- 0:21on it. And that meter is the whole
- 0:23problem. Free plan, you hit it fast. $20
- 0:26plan, you hit it in an afternoon of real
- 0:28work. $200 plan, a few days of heavy
- 0:32work, and you still hit it. Paying more
- 0:34doesn't remove the meter, it just moves
- 0:36it. But what if I told you there's a way
- 0:38to get the same Clawed app for free?
- 0:41Around 7.4 billion tokens a month.
- 0:44That's enough to build a full SAS
- 0:45product, redesign your entire website,
- 0:48clean up years of messy files, and still
- 0:50have tokens left over at the end of the
- 0:52month. This 3D finance dashboard built
- 0:54on it. This 3D website, $0. a messy
- 0:58laptop with over a thousand files sorted
- 1:00in minutes free. And today I'll show you
- 1:03exactly how to set it up. Every key,
- 1:06every setting, every prompt, and the
- 1:08mistakes nobody warns you about, plus
- 1:10how to fix them. Stay till the end. I'll
- 1:12put a free alternative head-to-head with
- 1:14real Claude Opus 5.5. Same generic
- 1:17prompt, and you judge the result. One
- 1:19small request before we start. Subscribe
- 1:22because we're doing the work so your AI
- 1:24workflow becomes 100x more efficient.
- 1:26And all you have to do is build. Okay,
- 1:29let's dive in.
- 1:35But before that, one thing worth
- 1:37mentioning because it's the fastest way
- 1:39to actually get good at this stuff.
- 1:42That's what this weekend's free AI
- 1:44mastermind is built for. This Saturday
- 1:46and Sunday, Outskill is running a 2-day
- 1:48AI mastermind live from 10:00 a.m. to
- 1:507:00 p.m. Eastern on both days. Over 10
- 1:54million people have gone through this
- 1:55training. It's rated 4.9 out of five on
- 1:57Trustpilot and it normally costs $395.
- 2:01For the first thousand people from this
- 2:03video, it's free. This isn't a lecture
- 2:06series. It's hands-on training from
- 2:08practitioners at Microsoft and NVIDIA
- 2:10covering more than 10 AI tools, AI
- 2:13inside Excel, Sheets, and Presentations,
- 2:15building your own AI agents, and
- 2:17automating your workflows. You also get
- 2:19a learning dashboard where you build
- 2:21alongside other people. Show up for both
- 2:23days and you also walk away with bonuses
- 2:26worth over $5,000, including a prompt
- 2:29bible, a road map to monetize AI, and a
- 2:31personalized AI toolkit builder. Seats
- 2:34are capped at a,000, so grab yours
- 2:36through the first link in the
- 2:37description. In my last video, I showed
- 2:39you three ways to stop paying for Claude
- 2:41Code. This one is different. Not Claude
- 2:44Code, the coding tool, the full Claude
- 2:46app, the one you already chat in, the
- 2:49one with projects, artifacts, co-work.
- 2:51And instead of real Claude on a small
- 2:53free budget, we're running it on way
- 2:56bigger free fuel up to around 7.4
- 2:58billion tokens a month from mostly open-
- 3:01source models that are good enough for
- 3:02everyday work. Different trade-off,
- 3:05different use case. Last time, real
- 3:07Claude, but small limits. This time, way
- 3:10more usage, but not Claude's brain. both
- 3:13worth knowing. By the end of this video,
- 3:15the Clawed app on your computer will be
- 3:17running on free fuel. You'll clean up a
- 3:19messy laptop with it. You'll build a 3D
- 3:22finance dashboard on the same free
- 3:23engines. And you'll have a ladder of
- 3:26three different free setups so you can
- 3:28pick the one that fits your life. And
- 3:30one more thing, I'll put the easiest
- 3:32free alternative to Claude Code
- 3:34head-to-head with the real Claude on my
- 3:36paid plan. Same prompt, both results on
- 3:38screen. You decide which one wins. Let's
- 3:41go. Step one, the one free app I
- 3:43mentioned, it's called Free LLM API and
- 3:47it's sitting on GitHub. Think of it as
- 3:48an app store for free tools with over
- 3:5150,000 stars. That's basically 50,000
- 3:54developers saying, "I like this." Links
- 3:57in the description, so don't type
- 3:58anything, just click. And look at the
- 4:00line right at the top of the page. 7.4 4
- 4:04billion tokens a month, 34 free
- 4:06providers, 635 free model endpoints, all
- 4:10in one place. Quick note on tokens. It's
- 4:13just how AI usage is measured. One token
- 4:16is about 3/4 of a word. So 7.4 billion
- 4:20is more words than you could read in a
- 4:22lifetime. Scroll down to releases,
- 4:24that's the download section, and click
- 4:26the latest one. Windows, the file ending
- 4:29in setup.exe.
- 4:31Mac, the DMG. And if your Mac has an M
- 4:34chip, pick ARM 64 Linux the app image
- 4:38and skip the zip files. That's the most
- 4:40common mistake here. On Windows, the zip
- 4:42files won't install at all. Open it.
- 4:45Windows will say it protected your PC.
- 4:48Normal. That happens with a lot of new
- 4:50apps. Click more info, then run anyway.
- 4:53A few seconds and it's installed. No
- 4:55account, no password, nothing to log
- 4:58into. Quick tour because you'll be
- 5:00living in these tabs. Models. every free
- 5:02AI you unlock. Playground, a chat box to
- 5:06test any of them. Keys, where we'll add
- 5:08our free keys in a minute, and agents.
- 5:11Look at this list. Claude code, codeex,
- 5:14cursor, open code, 20 AI tools this one
- 5:17app can plug into. Today, we're plugging
- 5:20it into the Claude app. But first, it
- 5:22needs fuel. And the fuel is free. You
- 5:25just need to know where to get it. Fuel
- 5:27means API keys. And an API key is just a
- 5:30password that lets this app use a
- 5:32company's AI for you. Think of each one
- 5:35as a free fuel card. In the next 3
- 5:37minutes, we'll collect five of them. By
- 5:39the end, you'll have hundreds of
- 5:41millions of free tokens in your tank.
- 5:43And the loop is the same every time. Add
- 5:45key, pick the company, grab the key from
- 5:48their site, copy, paste, save. Do it
- 5:51once, and the rest is muscle memory.
- 5:53Every link I mention is in the
- 5:55description, so don't type anything,
- 5:56just click. First up, Google AI Studio.
- 6:00Head to a studio.google.com.
- 6:02Sign in with your Google account. Click
- 6:04get API key. Then create a new key. Give
- 6:07it any name. Copy it. Back in free LLM
- 6:10API, paste add key. It asks which models
- 6:13this key should serve. Hit select all.
- 6:16Save. 15 Gemini and Gemma models. Free.
- 6:19Second. Nvidia. This one's the big one.
- 6:22NVIDIA hosts some of the strongest open
- 6:25models in the world and lets you use
- 6:26them for free. Go to build.envidia.com.
- 6:30Sign in. Click generate API key. Name
- 6:33it. Set expiry to 12 months. Copy.
- 6:36Paste. Select all. Save. 16 more models.
- 6:39Two down, three to go. Third, Z.AI, the
- 6:42company behind the GLM models. Go to
- 6:45Z.AI. Sign in with Google. Open the API
- 6:48keys page. Click add API key. Copy it.
- 6:51Paste. Save. Done in 30 seconds. Fourth,
- 6:55Cloudflare. Heads up, this one asks for
- 6:57two things instead of one. Don't worry,
- 7:00it's still quick. Go to
- 7:01dash.cloudflare.com
- 7:03and sign in. In the dashboard, open
- 7:05workers Aai, then REST API, and create a
- 7:08WorkersAI API token. Don't worry about
- 7:10the names. Just follow my clicks. Copy
- 7:12it. The second thing is your account ID.
- 7:15It's that long code sitting right in the
- 7:17browser's address bar. Paste both. Add
- 7:19key. 26 more models unlocked. Fifth,
- 7:23Open Router, our safety net. Go to open
- 7:26router.ai, sign in, open the keys page,
- 7:29create a new key, name it, set it to
- 7:31expire in 7 days, which means by the
- 7:33time you're watching this, my key is
- 7:35already dead. And here's a smart trick.
- 7:37Set the credit limit to $0. Now, this
- 7:40key can only ever touch free models.
- 7:43Even if you wanted to spend money, you
- 7:44couldn't. Copy the key right away. Open
- 7:47router shows it only once and missing
- 7:49that is a really common mistake. Paste
- 7:52add key done. And notice something, no
- 7:54credit card anywhere. No card means no
- 7:57bill. Two bonuses that don't even need a
- 7:59key. Parallel, which lets your AI search
- 8:02the web, and Kilo Gateway. Just click
- 8:04enable on both. Seven providers, all
- 8:07green, all healthy. Now look at the
- 8:10models tab. around 788
- 8:13million free tokens a month from just
- 8:16these keys. That's more words than you
- 8:18could type in your whole life. Add all
- 8:2034 providers and you're up near 7.4
- 8:24billion. But honestly, you don't need
- 8:26all of them. You need the best ones. And
- 8:29if you want to go wider later, there's a
- 8:31community list called awesome free LLM
- 8:34APIs, links in the description, with
- 8:36dozens more free providers. One more
- 8:38thing before we move on. Free LLM API
- 8:41isn't just chat. There's an image tab
- 8:44for free AI image generation and a
- 8:46fusion tab where several AIs answer the
- 8:49same question and a judge picks the best
- 8:51answer. Both free. Worth a look later.
- 8:54Today we stay with chat. But here's the
- 8:57catch nobody tells you. Most of these
- 8:59free engines are small, good for
- 9:01everyday stuff, but not the heavy
- 9:03lifting. So, next, let's go find the big
- 9:06ones, the strongest free engines we can
- 9:09get our hands on. Remember the car from
- 9:11the last video? The Claude app is the
- 9:13body, the steering, the dashboard,
- 9:15everything you touch. The AI model is
- 9:18the engine. Right now, the engines we've
- 9:20put in are small, good for a city drive,
- 9:23not built for the highway. So, let's fit
- 9:25the strongest free engines we can find.
- 9:27Back to keys, click add key, but this
- 9:30time, choose custom endpoint. All that
- 9:32means is instead of letting the app pick
- 9:34which Nvidia models to give you, we're
- 9:36going straight into Nvidia's full
- 9:38catalog and picking the big ones
- 9:40ourselves. Type chat base URL, Nvidia's
- 9:44full address. It's in the description.
- 9:46Copy it from there. Use the same Nvidia
- 9:48key you already generated. Click fetch
- 9:51models and Nvidia's whole catalog opens
- 9:53up. I'm picking the heavy hitters first.
- 9:56Deepseek v4.1 flash. And here's why this
- 9:59one matters. There's an independent
- 10:01scoreboard called artificial analysis.
- 10:04They test every AI model that comes out
- 10:06and give it a score. Deepseek v4.1 flash
- 10:09scores 33. Claude top model opus 5.5 on
- 10:13its lightest setting scores 35. Two
- 10:16points. That's the entire gap between
- 10:19the thing people pay $200 a month for
- 10:21and the thing you just unlocked for
- 10:23zero. And second, GLM 5.3 Flash from
- 10:27Z.AI. Another heavyweight. add it. Both
- 10:30show up right here under custom. All
- 10:32healthy. And you can add more the exact
- 10:35same way. Here's Miniax M3.1 Flash.
- 10:38Fetch models. Tick add. That's it. Now
- 10:41head to the models tab. The routing
- 10:43strategy up top decides which AI answers
- 10:46when you send a message. Fastest,
- 10:48smartest, most reliable, or manual if
- 10:50you want to pick the order yourself.
- 10:52I'll go with smartest. Now, here's where
- 10:54it all clicks. Head back to keys and
- 10:57open the anthropic tab inside it. The
- 10:59Claude app has three seats for AI models
- 11:02named after Claude's own models. Opus,
- 11:04Sonnet, and Haiku. Opus is the top seat.
- 11:08Sonnet is the everyday workhorse. Haiku
- 11:10is the quick one. We get to decide what
- 11:12sits in each seat. Opus, the top seat,
- 11:15gets Deepseek V4.1 Flash. Sonnet, the
- 11:19everyday seat, gets GLM 5.3 Flash.
- 11:22Haiku. The quick one gets a fast Gemini
- 11:24flash. Save mapping. Quick test in the
- 11:27playground. Hi, how are you doing?
- 11:29Answer back in about a second and a
- 11:31half. The engines are running. Now,
- 11:33let's drop them into the car. Back on
- 11:35the keys page up top, you'll see your
- 11:38unified API key. One key that unlocks
- 11:41everything we just built. Copy it. Now,
- 11:43head to claude.com/down.
- 11:46Grab the Claude app for Windows. Install
- 11:48it. When it opens, don't sign in. Open
- 11:51the menu at the top left. Go to
- 11:53developer and choose configure thirdp
- 11:55party inference. That's a hidden setting
- 11:57that lets the clawed app run on a
- 11:59different engine. If you don't see
- 12:01developer, turn on developer mode first.
- 12:04It's under help, then troubleshooting.
- 12:06Now, five boxes. Miss one and nothing
- 12:09works. So, pause here if you need to and
- 12:11don't worry about what any of this
- 12:13means. Just mirror what's on screen.
- 12:16Everything is in the description, too.
- 12:18One, gateway. Two, credential kind
- 12:21static API key. Three, the base URL http
- 12:25col/127.0.0.1
- 12:30col 31415. That's your own computer.
- 12:34Four, paste the unified key you just
- 12:36copied. Five, scheme x-appi-
- 12:40key. Apply changes. Claude restarts and
- 12:43look at the top of the window. You're
- 12:45using gateway. Open the model picker.
- 12:48Opus is now DeepSeek. Sonnet is GLM. One
- 12:51pro tip before we start chatting.
- 12:53Picking one engine per seat is great
- 12:55when you have a favorite, but for
- 12:57everyday use, auto is safer. So, back in
- 13:00the anthropic tab inside Free LLM API,
- 13:03set every seat to auto and save. Now, if
- 13:06one engine is busy or hits its limit,
- 13:08free LLM API quietly hands your message
- 13:11to the next healthy one. No errors, no
- 13:13waiting. You don't even notice the
- 13:15switch. New chat. Hi there. And it
- 13:18answers. Same Claude app you've always
- 13:20used. Free engine inside it doing the
- 13:23work. But you know the rule from the
- 13:24last video. The Claude app shows
- 13:26Claude's names everywhere. Opus, Sonnet,
- 13:29Haiku, and a model's word isn't proof.
- 13:32So check the receipt. Back in free LLM
- 13:34API, open analytics, every message.
- 13:38Which model actually answered? Which
- 13:40provider? The Claude app shows Claude.
- 13:42The proof shows you what really ran.
- 13:45Setup's done. And if you've made it this
- 13:47far, this is your reward. Two real jobs.
- 13:50One everyday job you've been putting off
- 13:52for months. One fun build that shows
- 13:55what free AI can actually do. My laptop
- 13:58is a disaster. Downloads folder from
- 14:002022. Screenshots everywhere.
- 14:03Half-finish installer files I forgot
- 14:05about. So, let's hand it to co-work. The
- 14:08mode inside the Claude app that can
- 14:10actually read the files on your
- 14:11computer. I asked Claude to look through
- 14:13my desktop, downloads, documents,
- 14:16pictures, videos, and music. Don't move
- 14:18anything yet. Just tell me how bad it is
- 14:21and never touch system folders. Claude
- 14:23asks permission for my user folder.
- 14:25Allow. And notice the model picker still
- 14:28says Haiku, but under the hood, a free
- 14:31engine is doing all this work. It writes
- 14:33its own little script, surveys
- 14:35everything. Read only. Nothing moved
- 14:37yet. And here's the verdict. Downloads
- 14:40folder. 997 files, 28.7 GB. Claude calls
- 14:45it the worst one. Fair. It also found
- 14:49duplicate files scattered across
- 14:51folders, old installers from apps I
- 14:53don't even use anymore. And it proposes
- 14:55a clean folder structure on its own. Now
- 14:58I say go ahead. Claude builds a plan and
- 15:01starts moving files one folder at a
- 15:03time. And the log on my desktop is
- 15:05already filling up. Every file, where it
- 15:07came from, where it went, why it moved.
- 15:10So if I don't like any of it, I can undo
- 15:12the whole thing. And downloads now has
- 15:15real folders. Installers in one place,
- 15:17photos in another, study files, videos,
- 15:20everything where it belongs. Final
- 15:22summary, my desktop went from 54 files
- 15:25down to 11. 90 duplicates moved to the
- 15:28review folder. Nothing deleted. Every
- 15:30move logged. That's the kind of job most
- 15:33of us put off for months. Done in a few
- 15:35minutes for free. Sorting files is
- 15:38useful, but can Free AI actually build
- 15:41something? Let's find out. A 3D expense
- 15:44tracker in dollars. And this time, right
- 15:47inside Free LLM API's own playground set
- 15:50to auto. My prompt, dark navy
- 15:53background, glowing dollar coins
- 15:54floating in 3D, glass panels, add your
- 15:57expenses, a 3D chart, and a budget bar.
- 16:00Full text in the description. Claude
- 16:03thinks through the 3D scene, then writes
- 16:05the whole app as one single file. And
- 16:07there's a live preview right here in the
- 16:09playground. Version one, clean, dark,
- 16:13functional. Add expense form on the
- 16:15right. Nice. But I want more. So, I talk
- 16:18to it the way I'd talk to a designer.
- 16:20Make it professional. A long one-page
- 16:23tracker with charts and an analysis
- 16:25section. Here's a reference. I like
- 16:27Notion's finance tracker template. And
- 16:29for the redesign, I switched to a
- 16:31stronger engine, GLM 5.3 Flash. And now
- 16:35look at this. Expense Flow Pro, a
- 16:38sidebar, overview cards for spending,
- 16:40income, cash flow, and budget, an income
- 16:43versus expenses chart, a monthly budget
- 16:46tracker, and a glowing 3D background
- 16:48that moves all from a chat box, and it
- 16:51cost $0. Quick honesty check before we
- 16:54move on. So far, I haven't hit a single
- 16:57error on camera, but free tools can
- 17:00break. Rate limits kick in, a provider
- 17:02goes down, something stops responding.
- 17:05It happens. So, here's your safety net.
- 17:07Same house rule from the last video. If
- 17:10you ever see an error, copy the whole
- 17:12message. Open Anti-gravity, Google's
- 17:15free AI app that can actually fix things
- 17:17on your computer. Open the folder you
- 17:19were working in as your workspace, and
- 17:21tell it which folder that is. paste the
- 17:24error and say, "Fix this." Or paste the
- 17:27free LLM API GitHub link and say,
- 17:29"Follow this guide and fix my setup."
- 17:32Anti-gravity reads it, figures out
- 17:34what's wrong, fixes it. You carry on.
- 17:37You're the driver. Anti-gravity is the
- 17:39mechanic. So, that's free LLMAPI.
- 17:42Billions of free tokens running inside
- 17:44the real Claude app. But let's be
- 17:47honest, it takes setup, keys to collect,
- 17:49engines to map, and free providers hit
- 17:52daily limits, slow down during busy
- 17:54hours, sometimes make you babysit them.
- 17:57So, what if you want something simpler?
- 17:59Here's the best part I promised you at
- 18:01the start. It's called open code. You
- 18:03tell it what to build, it builds it just
- 18:05like cloud code, but some of the best
- 18:07free models on the planet are already
- 18:10baked in. No keys, no setup, no card.
- 18:13It's not identical to claude code, but
- 18:15the output shockingly close for free.
- 18:19Head to opencode.ai, click download,
- 18:21choose Windows, install it. Windows
- 18:23warning again, more info. Run anyway.
- 18:26Make an empty folder on your desktop.
- 18:28I'll call mine Brew Lab and open it in
- 18:30Open Code. Look at this list. Deepseek,
- 18:33GLM, Miniax, all free, all built-in. I'm
- 18:37picking DeepSeek V4.1 Flash free. One of
- 18:40the strongest free models out there
- 18:42right now. And this version on Open Code
- 18:44doesn't store your data or train on it.
- 18:47And this time, I'm giving it almost
- 18:49nothing. Three lines. Build a stunning
- 18:513D website for a coffee shop called Brew
- 18:54Lab. Make it look like an award-winning
- 18:56website. Use 3JS and keep everything in
- 18:59one index.html file. 3.js is just the
- 19:02tool websites use for 3D graphics. The
- 19:05design completely up to the AI. It
- 19:07plans, it writes the file, and there's
- 19:09our website. Now the exact same three
- 19:12lines, same prompt. This time I'm giving
- 19:14it to real Claude Opus 5.5 running on my
- 19:18paid plan. And now both of them side by
- 19:21side. Left Claude Opus 5.5 running on my
- 19:24$200 a month plan. Right, Deepseek V4.1
- 19:28Flash running completely free. Look at
- 19:31the hero sections, the typography, the
- 19:333D coffee animation on both sides, the
- 19:36scroll feel, the product cards, the
- 19:38menu. One of these costs $200 a month to
- 19:41make. The other one costs zero. I'll let
- 19:44you decide which one wins. So, here's
- 19:46where you can go from here. Three
- 19:48options. Pick the one that fits your
- 19:50life. Option one, what we built today.
- 19:53Free LLM API plus the Claude app. The
- 19:56full Cloud experience you already know,
- 19:58running on free engines that switch on
- 20:00their own. Biggest free setup out there
- 20:02and the most powerful, but it takes an
- 20:05afternoon to wire up. Option two, open
- 20:08code. simpler, closest to Claude Code
- 20:10with the best free models builtin. No
- 20:13keys, no setup, nothing to configure.
- 20:15And if you ever want stronger engines,
- 20:17Open Code Go is $10 a month. Option
- 20:20three, if you want the real Claude
- 20:22models, not open- source ones, go watch
- 20:25my last video. I showed three ways to
- 20:27run Claude Code for free using actual
- 20:29Claude, Opus, and Sonnet, plus around
- 20:311.6 billion more free tokens a month.
- 20:34Links up here. So, let's add it up.
- 20:37Everyone told you Claude costs $20 a
- 20:39month or 100 or 200. Today you put
- 20:43around 7.4 billion free tokens a month
- 20:46inside the real Claude app. It cleaned
- 20:49up a messy laptop. It built a 3D finance
- 20:52dashboard. And on top of that, you've
- 20:54got Open Code, the simplest free
- 20:56alternative to Claude Code with some of
- 20:58the best models on the planet. 0 to no
- 21:02subscription, no credit card, no
- 21:04terminal. Every prompt from this video,
- 21:06every link, every setting, it's all
- 21:09inside my free resource library. Links
- 21:11in the description. Join, grab
- 21:14everything, run your own build tonight.
- 21:16And if you want to go way deeper than
- 21:18one video can take you, that's what this
- 21:20weekend's free AI mastermind is for.
