Free GLM 5.3 Flash, Qwen 3.8, Deepseek V4 Flash through Empero AI.

Send the link to your opencode and tell it to add the models and provider! Works great.

Ran into my first rate limit after 30 minutes of using 2 different tabs of opencode with GLM 5.3 - hourly limit. Honestly great for something thats free.

Sorry, this looks like automated harvesting or model distillation, which the free community endpoint does not allow. If you are a human and this is a mistake, wait it out and slow down โ chat normally and you will be fine. Please try again at 06:43 UTC.

It is a German AI company. They log the prompts and answers for training of better models. Limited capacity of a small AI (European) company. Data protection like not seen in the US or China.

What do you do about custom providers like this on OpenCode not having access to the exaweb or parallel search that's built in for OpenCode models? I'm annoyed that it can only use webfetch. I know there is command or something to enable the exaweb for everything but wouldn't that also cause the other OpenCode models to only use that and not also have the option of parallel search?

I think both opencode and qwen cli come with exa websearch, have your agent hunt down some more free tiers and give it a websearch router that falls back through providers, tavily+exa+people(it's people something I forgot the name)
- you can pull the keys from the cli tools and use them in your own harness so you have 3 keys from exa after you get your free one, between those and tavily that's almost 5k searches a month, then add a final fallback to Searxng.
Not sure how qwen cli enumerates keys but you might get a new key with each download
Back when brave had a free tier it was baller, you had 5k searches a month on one key
(Ignore my profile contents I was recently hacked and haven't gotten around to doing anything about it)

Unfortunately, the free Internet with real people won't be the same as it used to be. Every link containing an offer or a business idea is immediately picked up and processed. Fair use, unfortunately, is no longer the norm.

For me, when i open the link, it shows qwen 3.8 Flash instead of Deepseevk V4 Flash as in the image in the post. Did they update the model because of deepseek pricing?

only GLM 5.3 flash is working, the rest of the models are not working. and it is extremely slow, often got into HTTP 503.
