Try the Free AI Tools
Free AI Tools are public, no-signup mini chats, each one a single named persona built for one specific job.
TL;DR
At sistava.com/free-ai-tools you can chat with 56 free tools without creating an account. Each tool is one named persona (Marco the idea validator, for example) who only does the one job in its name. You get 5 messages per tool per 30 days and can paste a link into the chat for the persona to read, up to 5 page reads per session. When you use up your free messages, you are asked to create a free account to keep the conversation going. Signing up does not add extra messages to the free tool itself. Instead, it carries the exact conversation into your Sistava workspace and hires that same persona as a real Employee, so you pick up right where you left off.
How It Works
- Open a tool. Each tool has its own page and its own persona: a name, a photo, and a role (for example, an idea validator, a business name generator, a cold email writer).
- Chat, no signup. Type your question. The persona replies in seconds. No login, no card, nothing to install.
- Paste a link if you have one. If you paste a URL into the chat, the persona reads that page and uses it to answer you. This works up to 5 times per session; after that it asks you to sign up for unlimited page reads.
- Hit the free limit. Each tool allows 5 messages per session, per 30 days. Your message count and the limit are shown once you have sent a few messages.
- Create a free account to keep going. At the limit, a signup form appears right in the chat: social login or email and password. Your transcript is saved either way.
- Land back in the same conversation. After signup, Sistava hires the same persona as an Employee in your workspace and drops the whole conversation into that Employee's chat, with a short message from them picking up where you left off.

What You Can Do
| Action | How |
|---|---|
| Talk to a specific specialist | Open the tool for that job (naming, pricing, cold email, and so on) instead of a generic chatbox |
| Have the persona read a web page | Paste a URL in your message; the persona reads it and answers using that content |
| Switch tools mid-session | Use the in-chat switcher to open a different free tool; starting a new tool starts a fresh conversation |
| Keep a conversation going past the free limit | Create a free account from the signup prompt that appears in the chat |
| See how many free messages are left | The message counter appears in the tool's header once you have exchanged a few messages |
Tips
- Ask the real question first. Each persona is built for one job, so a specific, on-topic question gets a sharper answer than a generic one.
- Paste the link instead of pasting the text. If you want a persona to react to a live page (a competitor's site, your own draft page), share the URL directly rather than copying text in by hand.
- Your first couple of messages are free of pressure. The message counter and hire prompt only show up after a few exchanges, so you can try a tool without seeing a countdown right away.
- The free-tool conversation is not lost if you leave. Your session is remembered by your browser, so returning to the same tool later continues the same conversation, up to your monthly message limit.
Good to Know
- The 5-message limit is per tool, per 30 days, not shared across all 56 tools. Trying a different tool gives you a fresh set of free messages for that tool.
- Signing up does not add extra free messages to the tool itself. The free limit is a hard ceiling. What signing up gets you is the same conversation continuing with the same persona, now hired as an Employee inside your workspace.
- Every free tool maps to a real Employee role (for example, the paralegal, the accountant, the graphic designer, a team lead). The persona you chat with for free is the same role you would hire for real.
- A busy message can happen at peak traffic. If a lot of visitors are chatting at once, you may briefly see a "hang tight" message with a retry button. This does not use up one of your free messages.
- These are separate from your workspace's AI employees. Free tool personas are public-facing and unauthenticated; they are not listed in your workspace and do not count toward anything in your account until you actually sign up and the hand-off happens.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need an account to use the free AI tools?
A: No. Every tool at sistava.com/free-ai-tools is fully usable with no signup, no login, and no credit card.
Q: How many free messages do I get? A: 5 messages per tool, renewing every 30 days. Each tool's limit is separate, so switching tools gives you a fresh set of messages for that one.
Q: Can I have the AI read a webpage instead of typing everything myself? A: Yes. Paste a link into the chat and the persona reads that page and answers using it. This works up to 5 times per session.
Q: What happens when I run out of free messages? A: A signup prompt appears right in the chat. Signing up does not unlock more free messages in that tool, but it carries your conversation into your Sistava workspace, where the same persona keeps helping you as a hired Employee.
Q: Do I lose the conversation if I create an account? A: No. Your transcript carries over automatically. The persona you were chatting with is hired into your workspace, and their first message picks up from exactly what you were discussing.
Q: Are the free tool personas the same as real AI Employees? A: Each free tool persona maps to a real Employee role in the catalog. When you sign up, that exact role is hired for you, so the persona you tried for free becomes a real member of your workforce.
