In this video, I’ll show you how to use the premium paid Claude models completely free for a full month, with no credit card, and not just in one app but inside Claude Code itself. 🤯
You’ll see exactly how to claim it, how to make sure you’re NEVER charged, and how to plug these Claude models straight into Claude Code, the full agentic environment, and even right inside VS Code.
These are normally paid models Opus alone needs a $20/month plan so this is a great way to use them for free for learning, testing, prototyping, and freelancing. 💪
