# Free AI Tools Try a real AI employee before you hire one. Sistava's free tools let anyone chat, with no signup and no card, with a named persona built for one job: writing ad copy, drafting an NDA, naming a business, building a pricing strategy, and 50+ more. Each tool runs up to a monthly message cap, then offers to continue the same conversation inside a full account. Free AI Tools is a set of 56 standalone chat mini-apps, each built around one named persona and one job: an ad copy generator, an NDA generator, a business plan generator, a pricing strategy generator, and dozens more covering marketing, legal, hiring, and operations tasks. A visitor opens a tool and starts chatting immediately. No account, no email, no card. Every tool is powered by the same persona system used by Sistava's hired employees. For example, the ad copy generator is staffed by Eva, the same Marketing Manager persona available as a full catalog hire, so the free experience and the paid experience feel like the same person. If a visitor pastes a link into the chat, the tool reads the page content directly (at no cost) and uses it to answer, without ever claiming a browsing ability it doesn't have past that. Usage is capped per app per month per visitor session. Once the cap is reached the tool asks for an email address and then points the visitor to sign up; the cap itself is absolute, so an email records who was interested rather than buying extra free messages. Signing up carries the actual conversation forward: Sistava hires the matching employee into the visitor's new workspace and drops them into the same thread, mid-conversation, so nothing is lost by converting from free to paid. The hub is arranged around where a founder actually is rather than around product categories, so the tools group into validating an idea, setting the business up, finding customers, marketing, getting found online, and running the day to day. Most people arrive on one tool from a search and never see the hub, which is fine; the grouping is there for the moment you finish one job and wonder what else is sitting there. Each tool is deliberately narrow, and that is the trade. A free tool is one persona doing one job in one conversation. It has no tools of its own, no memory of you across different tools, and no ability to act in the world: it reads what you type, plus a page you paste a link to, and it writes. The employees you hire are the opposite, with tools, memory, schedules, and channels, which is exactly the line the free tools are there to let you feel before you pay anything. Every so often a tool will ask you to wait a moment before it answers. That is not a failure and not a paywall: only so many free conversations can be generating at the same instant, and when the tools are busy your turn queues briefly. Trying again a moment later works, and that ceiling is what lets the tools stay genuinely free instead of closing the day somebody abuses them. ## What you can try for free The 56 tools span marketing (ad copy, buyer personas, case studies, SWOT analysis), legal and operations (NDAs, freelance contracts, privacy policies, terms of service, offer letters), sales (cold emails, follow-up emails, sales scripts, proposals), and content or SEO work (meta descriptions, alt text, schema markup, keyword research, blog post ideas). Each tool is a focused chat, not a generic assistant: it stays in character for its one job, and its persona matches a real employee you could hire on Sistava if you decide the conversation is worth continuing. ## From free chat to a hired employee The free tools are not a separate product. Every tool config names which catalog employee template it hands off to, so when a visitor signs up, Sistava hires that same employee (plus a team leader where relevant) into their new workspace and seeds the exact transcript they were already reading, so the conversation continues instead of restarting from zero. This means the free tools double as a real preview: the persona, the tone, and the model tier a visitor experiences for free are the same ones they get after signing up, not a stripped-down demo. ## What a free tool cannot do It cannot go and get things. A free tool writes; it does not send an email, open your calendar, post anything, or search the wider web. The one exception is a link you paste yourself, which it will read, up to a limit per conversation, before asking you to paste the important text instead. It does not know you. Each tool holds the conversation you are having with it right now, in this browser, and nothing else. It has no memory of what you told a different tool, no access to your files, and no record of your business to draw on, so the quality of what comes back depends entirely on the detail you put in. It cannot run on its own. Nothing happens between your messages, there is no schedule, and it will not pick a job back up tomorrow. A hired employee is where all three of those change, and knowing exactly which limit you are hitting is a fair way to judge whether hiring one would actually help you. ## How It Works **One shared chat engine, 56 personas, hard limits on cost and abuse** One shared engine powers every one of the 56 tools. Each tool carries its own small definition naming its persona, its output length, and which real employee template it hands off to when you sign up. That keeps every tool cheap to run and consistent in behavior, while still letting each one feel like a distinct specialist. Before any message reaches the model, the request passes through a metering ladder: a global concurrency cap protects against cost spikes across all tools at once, a per-IP hourly cap limits new sessions and abuse, and a monthly per-session message cap is enforced with no exceptions. Conversation history sent to the model is trimmed to the last 20 messages regardless of thread length, keeping per-call cost bounded. Optional link-reading is capped separately per session; past that cap the persona tells the visitor to paste the text instead of silently failing. All of this runs anonymously, keyed to a session identifier and IP, until the visitor chooses to sign up. ## Use Cases ### Draft ad copy before you commit to a plan Open the ad copy generator, describe your product, and get platform-ready variants from Eva, the same Marketing Manager persona you could hire full-time, with zero signup friction. ### Get a first-pass NDA or contract Use the NDA generator or freelance contract generator to produce a starting draft for a quick deal, then decide whether to hire an employee to handle the rest of your paperwork. ### Test the product before creating an account A prospective customer can experience Sistava's actual chat quality and persona system through any of the 56 tools before deciding whether to sign up, lowering the barrier to a first real conversation. ### Clear one piece of paperwork on a Sunday An offer letter, a refund policy, a set of interview questions, a standard operating procedure: the small documents that block a real decision but never feel worth a whole afternoon. Open the matching tool, answer a few questions, and leave with a draft you can edit rather than a blank page. ## Comparison | Before | After | |---|---| | Trying an AI product means creating an account and entering a card before you know it helps. | Open a tool and start typing.

No. Every tool is reachable with no account and no card. You can start chatting immediately and only need to sign up once you hit that tool's monthly message cap and want to keep going. ### What happens when I reach the monthly limit? The tool asks for your email address and then invites you to sign up. The monthly cap is a hard limit per tool and giving your email does not add more free messages, so creating an account is how you carry on, and your conversation comes with you when you do. ### Does my conversation carry over if I sign up? Yes. Signing up hires the matching AI employee into your new workspace and drops you back into the same thread, so the answers you already got are not lost. ### Can these tools read a link I paste? Yes, up to a per-session limit. Paste a URL and the tool reads the page content for free and uses it to answer. Past the per-session limit, it will ask you to paste the key text yourself instead. ### Do I have to give my email address to use a free AI tool? No. Every tool works with no email, no account, and no card from the first message. You are only asked for an email once you reach that tool's monthly message cap, and it does not buy you more free messages, so nothing is held back from you before that point. ### Do the free tools remember what I told them last time? Within one tool, in the same browser, your conversation is kept for a while, so you can come back to it. Across different tools, or a different browser or device, nothing carries over. Persistent memory of your business starts when you hire an employee into a workspace. ### Why does a free tool sometimes ask me to wait before replying? Only a fixed number of free conversations can be generating at the same instant, so when the tools are busy your turn waits briefly. It is not an error and not a paywall; trying again a moment later works, and that ceiling is what keeps the tools genuinely free. ### Are the free AI tools available in other languages? The tools are in English today. The pages are built so that a language can be added as content rather than as new software, so more will follow, but English is what is live right now. ## Where Free AI Tools fits Free AI Tools is part of Things they can do out of the box.
