Shimbiri

Free software. Metered AI. No subscriptions.

Set up a free account and the apps are yours. The AI is metered: you pay only for what you use, by the query, not by the month. The hardware and the hands-on services are quoted to your boat. No subscriptions, no contracts, no lock-in. We’re still calibrating the AI pricing, so you won’t find a price-per-query here yet, you’ll find the shape of it, and it’ll be fair.
