About
Ollama Cloud takes the open models builders already love (Qwen, GPT-OSS, DeepSeek, Mistral Small) and hosts them in the cloud with tool calling built in. The $0 Free plan gives you monthly-refreshing starter credits with no card or phone number, and the API is OpenAI-compatible. It is the easiest way to run open models from a name agent builders already trust.
Details
Free to start. You may need a free key, but no credit card.
