# Free credits for browser agents and agent backends: Steel, Hyperbrowser, Inngest and more

By Perq team ([Avatar 8](https://perq.sh/about)) · Oct 27, 2026 · Agents & automation · browser agents · free tiers · new offers

Offer details below are pulled from our dataset when the page is built, so they match the directory. Latest verification of offers in this post: Oct 27, 2026, 6:17 AM ET.

An agent that uses the web needs more than a model. It needs a browser to drive, somewhere to run code, and something to retry and schedule its steps. Most vendors in those layers offer a free allowance that needs only a signup. Three of them went public on Perq this morning: Steel and Hyperbrowser (cloud browsers) and Inngest (workflow orchestration). Each figure below is the vendor’s own wording, checked on its page, with the date we last verified it.

## Cloud browsers

Steel gives a one-time credit on its free Launch plan. Per its pricing page, that plan comes with 10 concurrent browser sessions, sessions up to 15 minutes and up to 3 seats.

[Steel](https://perq.sh/offers/steel-30-credit) Live signup credit

[$30 of credits, one time, on the free Launch plan ($0 per month + usage)](https://perq.sh/offers/steel-30-credit)

**Eligibility:** Anyone (new Steel account)

> “Start for free with $30 of credits, and pay only for what your agents run.”

Verified Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET · [Source: steel.dev ↗](https://steel.dev/pricing) · [Claim ↗](https://steel.dev/pricing)

Hyperbrowser counts usage in credits. Its pricing page says 1,000 credits equal $1 of usage, and that the free allowance is enough for 50 browser hours or 5,000 fetched pages at base rates.

[Hyperbrowser](https://perq.sh/offers/hyperbrowser-free-credits) Live signup credit

[5,000 credits with a free account (1,000 credits = $1 in usage)](https://perq.sh/offers/hyperbrowser-free-credits)

**Eligibility:** Anyone (free account)

> “Included with a free account 5,000 credits. Try your first workflow. Enough for 50 browser hours or 5,000 fetched pages at base rates.”

For comparison, here are the browser and page-fetch free tiers we already list:

| Vendor | Offer (vendor wording) | Eligibility | Verified | Links |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Steel](https://perq.sh/offers/steel-30-credit) | [$30 of credits, one time, on the free Launch plan ($0 per month + usage)](https://perq.sh/offers/steel-30-credit) | Anyone (new Steel account) | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://steel.dev/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://steel.dev/pricing) |
| [Hyperbrowser](https://perq.sh/offers/hyperbrowser-free-credits) | [5,000 credits with a free account (1,000 credits = $1 in usage)](https://perq.sh/offers/hyperbrowser-free-credits) | Anyone (free account) | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://www.hyperbrowser.ai/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://www.hyperbrowser.ai/pricing) |
| [Browserbase](https://perq.sh/offers/browserbase-free) | [Free plan ($0/mo) incl. $5 in model tokens, 1,000 search/fetch calls](https://perq.sh/offers/browserbase-free) | Anyone | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://www.browserbase.com/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://www.browserbase.com/pricing) |
| [Firecrawl](https://perq.sh/offers/firecrawl-free) | [1,000 credits/month free](https://perq.sh/offers/firecrawl-free) | Anyone; no card | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://www.firecrawl.dev/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://www.firecrawl.dev/pricing) |

A practical way to choose: Steel’s credit is one-time, so it suits a short evaluation. Firecrawl’s allowance is per month, so it suits a small agent that runs every day. Browserbase is a $0/mo plan with its own limits. Hyperbrowser gives a fixed pool of credits you spend at your own pace.

## Running agent steps: workflows and sandboxes

Inngest’s Free plan needs no credit card. Per its page it includes 5 concurrent steps and 3 workers alongside the limits below, and the SDK is open source.

[Inngest](https://perq.sh/offers/inngest-free) Live free tier

[Free plan $0/mo: 50k executions, 500k events ingested, 5 seats per month](https://perq.sh/offers/inngest-free)

**Eligibility:** Anyone; no credit card required

> “Free Generous monthly limits to prove it before production. No credit card required.”

If your agent writes and runs code, a sandbox matters more than a browser. These are the no-application options we track for workflows and sandboxes:

| Vendor | Offer (vendor wording) | Eligibility | Verified | Links |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Inngest](https://perq.sh/offers/inngest-free) | [Free plan $0/mo: 50k executions, 500k events ingested, 5 seats per month](https://perq.sh/offers/inngest-free) | Anyone; no credit card required | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://www.inngest.com/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://www.inngest.com/pricing) |
| [Trigger.dev](https://perq.sh/offers/trigger-dev-free) | [$5/month free credits (Free plan, $0/month)](https://perq.sh/offers/trigger-dev-free) | Anyone; no credit card required | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://trigger.dev/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://trigger.dev/pricing) |
| [E2B](https://perq.sh/offers/e2b-hobby-credit) | [$100 one-time usage credit (Hobby, no credit card)](https://perq.sh/offers/e2b-hobby-credit) | New E2B accounts | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://e2b.dev/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://e2b.dev/pricing) |
| [Daytona](https://perq.sh/offers/daytona-free-compute) | [$200 in free compute included](https://perq.sh/offers/daytona-free-compute) | New Daytona accounts | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://www.daytona.io/pricing) · [claim ↗](https://www.daytona.io/pricing) |

E2B and Daytona give one-time usage credits. Trigger.dev gives monthly credits. Inngest is a plain free tier measured in executions and events, not dollars.

## The agent infrastructure pack

All three new offers are now in the agent infrastructure pack. It groups sandboxes, browsers, search, memory and orchestration, and shows the total only for offers that state one explicit one-time USD amount:

## Also public today: watching and storing what the agent does

Four data and observability free tiers went public at the same time. They have been added to the data and observability pack:

| Vendor | Offer (vendor wording) | Eligibility | Verified | Links |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Arize AI](https://perq.sh/offers/arize-ax-free) | [AX Free: 25k trace spans and 1 GB ingestion per month, 15-day retention, unlimited users](https://perq.sh/offers/arize-ax-free) | Anyone; no credit card required | Oct 27, 2026, 6:07 AM ET | [source ↗](https://arize.com/pricing/) · [claim ↗](https://arize.com/pricing/) |

| [Redis](https://perq.sh/offers/redis-cloud-free) | [Free Redis Cloud database, always $0, up to 30 MB](https://perq.sh/offers/redis-cloud-free) | Anyone | Oct 27, 2026, 6:17 AM ET | [source ↗](https://redis.io/pricing/) · [claim ↗](https://redis.io/pricing/) |

Arize AX Free is aimed at LLM tracing and evals (unlimited users). Sentry’s Developer plan is limited to one user and includes MCP access. Turso’s free plan allows 100 databases, which suits one database per agent or per user. Redis Cloud’s free database is capped at 30 MB.

## Before you sign up

-   Free allowances change often. Each card above links to the vendor’s page and shows when we last checked it. Read the current terms before you build on one.
-   One-time credits run out. If an agent runs on a schedule, note the date you start so you know when you will begin paying.
-   The seven offers above that went public today also joined the [bootstrapped, no-application pack](https://perq.sh/packs/bootstrapped-no-application-pack), since none of them needs an application.

Subscribers to Perq early access got these offers a day before they appeared here. You can [sign up for early access](https://perq.sh/newsletter) by email or by webhook.
