Could you build this?
Partial Building a chat UI wrapper with streaming responses is very easy, but offering free, unauthenticated, unlimited inference on open-source models (GLM, Qwen, DeepSeek) requires either absorbing immense GPU hosting costs or specialized rate-limiting/abuse-prevention infra.
What it would actually take: The application architecture is a basic frontend routing requests through an inference gateway (e.g., vLLM, Ollama, or third-party inference APIs like Together/OpenRouter). The hard part is the unit economics and infrastructure: securing high-end GPU clusters (A100s/H100s) and implementing robust anti-bot/DDoS defenses to survive serving free public LLM traffic without accounts.
