Stop Hunting for "Free" Trials That Turn Into Credit-Card Traps
It's called public-apis — a community-curated list of over 1,400 free public APIs across 50+ categories. No gimmicks, no fake "free trials," just raw data you can actually use. One bookmark that ends the API hunt.
The Gold-Standard API List
A single MIT-licensed repo, maintained by developers worldwide, listing genuinely free public APIs — no "enter your credit card here" before you can touch the data. Everything is sorted into 50+ categories: finance, weather, news, sports, AI/ML, crypto, health, games, geocoding, music, science, and more. Every entry tells you the auth type, HTTPS, and CORS support up front, so you know if it fits in one glance.
What's in the Guide
Why this repo is the gold standard, how the old "free trial" hunt compares to just opening the repo and picking an API, and how to read each entry before you click.
