NVIDIA is offering a free one-year API key that unlocks 140+ models, including GLM 5.2, MiniMax M3, Nemotron-3.5-lightning-30b-a3b, and Meta's Muse-glimmer-30b.
Setup is straightforward: register on build.nvidia.com (phone verification required) to get an nvapi- key, add it in Hermes agent under Settings → Model Provider → Custom with the provided baseurl, then switch between models like z-ai/glm-5.2 or minimaxai/minimax-m3.
For agent builders paying $50-200/month for API access, this effectively zeros out inference costs for agent loops.
