Coding shouldn't be blocked behind expensive paywalls or subscriptions! We subsidize some of the best models (GPT 5.6 Luna, Deepseek v4 Pro, GLM 5.2) with small ads in order to give everyone access to agentic engineering.
Ever since i started using freebuff, Ive really loved it. So far i have spent over r a billion tokens in a few weeks, Thanks to the founders, for making this free for all of us.
i love it so far. actually feels way more premium than the other coders. i love the interface and the suggestions it brings.
I really like the Freebuff CLI's harness; it greatly enhances programming efficiency.
Sounds great! I'm just not very familiar with Freebuff, so I'm a bit hesitant to give it a try due to security concerns.
"Huge thanks for providing this free AI buff! The prompts/tools are insanely helpful and saved me so much time."
Freebuff was the OG Claude Code. They did it in 2024, at that time it was called CodeBuff. It was mind-blowing already at that time. Congrats on the launch guys!
The fact that this can actually compete with some of the paid options is pretty wild
Using it for months, can't recommend it enough. Add MCP and it'll be a winner, not only a keeper.
What a fantastic product! I love using it.
Clicking on the interesting ads that pop up from time to time is also a lot of fun :)
596 messages. 196.6M tokens. €0 spent on model access. The trade-off? You watch ads. what a time to be alive
Free coding agents without another subscription or API key to manage? That’s actually a pretty interesting approach 👀 Curious to try how Freebuff compares in real-world builds. Congrats team!
colour me intrigued! The model is a great idea and with the price increase for tokens from deepseek could be a good alternative.
Wow! I just discovered freebuff. I'm testing the desktop version and loving it. I can't believe I didn't know about this sooner. Please release more models for Brazil!! 😍😍
I am an idiot :) . Tell me how you guys make money. My Claude API bill was about 1600 last month
Amazing product! Been using it for a few months. Equivalent to Claude Code but free. Used it for data analysis for work as well as creating tools eg football manager moneyball tools. The harness really impressed me as it started checking some maths for me when I asked it about optimising collision detection for 3d objects. That's what inspired me to get it to help with data analysis too. I also used it to help research robot cars and drones for my son to use on ebay. So it has search tools too. It's amazing
