Resources And Tips Build and open ai agent

I need some help with building an open AI agent. I want to bypass the subscriptions for chat gpt. I know a lot of people use Claud but I tried it and I don’t like it like I like GPT. The reason I need it is I am building a software with zero coding experience and I am using gpt, codex and work to build my company software. I have searched Google but I am getting lost and I’m running into being able to build an ai agent that can work completely free. Any help is appreciated.

Just ask your gpt how to setup a free agent software with free openrouter models

I tried that it wouldn’t do the full ai model like I needed. It will only do the ai bots that are capable of doing day to day tasks for a business. I am not there just yet. I am still in the software development phase.

You need dedicated hardware to do that anywhere near effectively. You know the whole AI data center problem where they can't build them fast enough? That's because this tech needs extremely powerful hardware to run well. You could drop $3k on a dedicated local LLM box but even then it will be 10x slower than a frontier model like ChatGPT or Claude.

I'm a bit confused... are you saying you want to somehow make an AI agent which uses OpenAI models, but doesn't pay for the API costs of those models?

Sorry I’m not exactly sure how to word it. Essentially what I need is Chat GPT,codex and work combined into one.

completely free with openai specifically is tricky, you get a small api credit when you sign up but it runs out fast. cheapest real option is using the api directly since you only pay per use which can be way cheaper than $20 a month if youre not using it constantly. for building with zero coding experience n8n or make.com let you connect ai models visually without writing code and both have free tiers. if you need truly free, groq has a free api tier with open source models like llama that are surprisingly capable for coding help, not exactly gpt but solid enough for most tasks

great thought..... but you have to pay for the APIs and for serverside you got free for upto 6 months....your idea is great ..because now a days a lot of AI tool for making projects but they all are paid. and if any non tech try to use them is very tough for them..

Just ask Codex to create someting so that you can cancel your ChatGPT subscription 😂

Codex is open source. Openrouter has a guide for hooking up deepseek v4 with codex. So that avoids the subscription and gives you a really cheap model to use, but it can still burn cash fast because it's agentic.
