| Caveats | requires billing account with card (not charged until upgrade); credit does NOT apply to Gemini API / AI Studio. PROVENANCE CORRECTION 2026-09-16: this row asserted the credit is "valid 90 days" at confidence verified, and its own source_url does not support that. cloud.google.com/free read in full today states the $300 amount, the new-customer condition and "You won't be charged until you activate your full paid account" — but no validity period for the credit. The widely-repeated 90-day figure is therefore carried here as REPORTED and is not asserted; check the console for your own expiry before depending on it. BEWARE THE NEAR-MISS: the page does say "90 days", about the separate GKE free trial, so a keyword search finds it beside unrelated text and reads as confirmation — the same shape as the Upstash and AssemblyAI misses found today. |
No measured example — this row is evidence: documented: it states what the provider's own page advertised on the date shown, and this worker holds no credential to call it. The provider's documentation is the source: https://cloud.google.com/free
