Free tier (verified July 2026): Multi-model chat (GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini) — catch: daily credit allowance
Category
How we checked: read directly from the vendor's own pricing page — source
Re-read 25 September 2026. Sider sells paid plans by credit allowance, so the 'unlimited, no paywalls, no daily limits' answer one of our FAQs still carried was wrong. It had survived a 6 September correction that fixed a different FAQ.
| What | What we found | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 'FREE unlimited top models' | WithdrawnOur own pricing field says sustained use exhausts Sider's daily credits. The same page asserted both. | Changed since last check |
| Claim about Merlin's free tier | Removed — never verifiedThe answer read 'Merlin = limited free tier, paid premium features'. We had not checked Merlin's limits. This is the same class of error as telling readers Linktree's free plan capped links at five, which proved false — an unchecked claim about a competitor is the hardest kind to justify. | Changed since last check |
| Plans | Paid plans differ by credit allowance ('All plans include all features. Choose a higher plan for more credits.'); the page's FAQ covers subscriptions, refunds and when 'paid member credits reset'. | Confirmed |
| Free allowance | Not stated in the pricing page's visible text. A free-user figure exists in the page's embedded translation strings but is not displayed, so we do not quote it.Our listing's own pricing note (a daily credit allowance, with sustained use needing a paid plan) is unchanged. | Not yet checked by us |
| Models | 'Chat with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok & more.' The listing had named GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 and Gemini 1.5 Pro; specific versions are no longer quoted. | Changed since last check |
Editor verification notes
Checked by the TheToolsVerse Verification Desk — by reading the vendor's own published pages, not by testing the product in an account. Sider can change prices at any time without notice. The date above is the last time we looked; if it looks old, treat every figure here as unconfirmed and check Sider directly before paying.
