Free tiers, verified — not just listed
Every free tier below was checked against its official pricing page on its verification date. Dead tiers are marked dead and hidden by default, so you do not waste a signup on a free plan that no longer exists.
- AWS Free Tier — Changed The old 12-month EC2 750 hours / S3 5 GB free items no longer exist for new accounts — they are replaced by the $200 credit.
- Oracle Cloud Always Free — Changed The old “4 OCPU / 24 GB” figure still circulates everywhere — the current official page says 2 OCPU / 12 GB.
- Netlify Free — Changed Since 2025-09-04 new accounts are on the credit system — the old 100 GB bandwidth / 300 build minutes are gone. If any project exceeds the cap, every project in the account pauses.
- Backblaze B2 Free — Unverified Multiple third-party sources claim the first 10 GB is free, but the official pricing page text we read does not say so — we do not list it as fact.
- ImageKit Free — Changed Storage is 3 GB now, not the 20 GB many roundups still quote — 20 GB is the bandwidth figure.
Storj removed its permanent free tier (now a 30-day trial only) and was replaced in this directory by Tigris.
