What's free
200M free tokens per model on current embedding models (voyage-4-large, voyage-4, voyage-4-lite, voyage-context-4, voyage-code-4) and on the rerankers listed in the price table (rerank-3, rerank-3-lite); voyage-multimodal-3.5 and voyage-multimodal-3 get 200M text tokens + 150B pixels; legacy voyage-finance-2, voyage-law-2 and voyage-code-2 get 50M — a one-time complimentary allotment per account

Free limits
Numeric limits are not recorded in structured form for this provider.
In the provider's words
No numeric limit published for accounts without a payment method. With a payment method (Tier 1, free tokens still apply), per model: voyage-4 / voyage-code-4 8M TPM, 2,000 RPM; voyage-4-large / voyage-context-4 3M TPM, 2,000 RPM; voyage-4-lite 16M TPM, 2,000 RPM; voyage-multimodal-3.5 2M TPM, 2,000 RPM; rerank-3 / rerank-2.5 2M TPM, 2,000 RPM; rerank-3-lite / rerank-2.5-lite 4M TPM, 2,000 RPM. HTTP 429 on exceed
The catch
The allotment is a one-time complimentary balance per model, not a renewing monthly quota. Free tokens do not apply to Batch API usage. Voyage's pricing page is internally inconsistent on rerankers: the prose still names the rerank-2.5/rerank-2 families as free, while the price table gives 200M free tokens to rerank-3 and rerank-3-lite and lists rerank-2.5 under older models with no free tokens. No credit card required to claim. Owned by MongoDB — a first-party model provider, not a proxy.
Free models: not listed yet.
Get started
This is a first-party API, not OpenAI-compatible, so there is no drop-in base URL. The endpoint, the key and a working example are in the official docs.
