 **Will I be charged by OmniRoute?** No — it's free, open-source software on your machine. You only pay paid providers directly. OmniRoute has no billing system.
 **Are FREE providers really unlimited?** Mostly — Qoder, Pollinations, LongCat, and Cloudflare are free with no per-account credit cap. Kiro is free too but capped at ~50 credits/month per account. Stack multiple free providers in a combo and auto-fallback keeps you serving for $0.
