Perq

Find free AI credits, free tiers and startup programs by need (LLM APIs, GPUs, voice, vector DBs, dev tools). Each offer returns the vendor's own quote, eligibility, claim link, source URL and last-verified date.

Read-only, no-auth MCP server (Streamable HTTP, stateless). Tools: find_credits, trending, get_offer, list_packs, get_pack, recently_changed, subscribe, early_offers. All read tools carry readOnlyHint. Closed offers stay listed with a closed date. A plain REST equivalent is GET https://perq.sh/api/search?q=<need>. Also in the official MCP Registry as sh.perq/perq. Operated by Avatar 8 LLC.

Agents can discover Perq through the Agent Nexus MCP server, /llms.txt or the discovery API.
