My Agnes AI review verdict up front: Agnes 2.5 Flash is genuinely free with no usage cap, and when I gave it three real jobs from my own business — a landing page, a 3D game and a working calculator tool — it handled all three. Agnes comes from Sapiens AI in Singapore, it is multimodal from the ground up, and its benchmark numbers sit in the same neighbourhood as the top models — though those are Agnes's own tests, so hold them loosely. If you want a capable model that costs nothing while you build, it is worth trying today.

Below: what Agnes actually is, what launched, how those benchmark claims hold up, and the three builds in detail — including the one caveat you shouldn't skip.
What Is Agnes?
Agnes is the model family built by Sapiens AI, a company based in Singapore — the country's own homegrown entry into a race we've all been told has only two serious runners. That matters beyond the novelty. Singapore has a national plan to be a builder of AI rather than just a user of it, and Agnes is what that plan looks like when it actually ships.
The family is multimodal from the ground up — text, images and video designed in from the start rather than bolted on afterwards. So this isn't a chat toy with a coding mode stapled to it. It's a full model family arriving as a third serious name beside the usual US-versus-China framing, which is exactly why I cleared an afternoon for it.
What Just Launched
Three things arrived together, and the combination is the story.
Agnes 2.5 Flash is the headline: free, and not stripped-down free. It's the full model with no usage cap, and Agnes says that isn't ending on some hidden date. For scale, in one recent week their models handled trillions of words of work for free — their figure, not mine, but it tells you this isn't a limited trial dressed up as generosity. The previous Flash already had over 500,000 developers using it, so the line arrives with an audience rather than a cold start.
Agnes Code is the piece I care about most: a desktop app where you type what you want in plain English and it works inside your real project. It reads your files, writes across many files at once, runs commands and checks its own work. That's the shape of tool I've spent all year telling people to watch, because it collapses the gap between describing a thing and having the thing.
Agnes 2.5 Pro is the bigger model, still coming, aimed at the heavy jobs and the top of the market. Flash is the free front door; Pro is the play for the podium.

The Benchmarks — and the Caveat That Matters
Here's the part of any Agnes AI review where honesty earns its keep: the numbers below come from Agnes's own internal tests. Not independent, not third-party — theirs. Read them as a strong signal, not a final scoreboard.
With that flag planted: Pro scored around 82.7 on SWE-bench Verified and roughly 78.7 on a multilingual coding test — the same neighbourhood as the very top models. The new Flash beat its older version on every test they ran, with the biggest jump on a test called SWE Atlas. And on their own chart, Flash came out ahead of some well-known models on parts of that test, including GLM 5.2 and DeepSeek V4 Pro — both names I've tested and written about here before.
My rule doesn't change based on whose chart it is: benchmarks get you interested, and your own work makes the decision. So I gave Agnes three jobs of mine.
My Three Tests
Test 1: An AI Profit Boardroom Landing Page
First job: a landing page for my AI Profit Boardroom community, from one plain-English description — sections for coaching calls, tutorials, prompt libraries and a member map. Agnes Code read the project, wrote the files and laid out the page. One description in, a structured page out.
What struck me was what that job used to cost. This is exactly the kind of task I'd normally hand off and then wait days for. Watching it come back in minutes, from a free model, reframes what "waiting on the developer" even means for a small business.
Test 2: A 3D Snake Game
Second, a deliberate stress test: a simple 3D snake game from one prompt. I don't need a snake game. I needed to know whether a free model could hold together something with that many moving parts — movement, collisions, scoring, a third dimension — without dropping any of them. Agnes held the game together. And the logic behind the test is simple: if a free model can keep a 3D game upright from a single prompt, everyday landing pages and business tools are easy work for it.
Test 3: A Coaching-Funnel Calculator
Third, something I'd genuinely use for planning: a coaching-funnel calculator. People coming in at the top, calls booked, follow-through — type the inputs, watch the numbers move. Agnes turned that description into a real planning tool rather than a party trick, and it arrived as a single tidy page I could put in front of anyone.

Who Agnes Is For
Builders and makers first. If you ship pages, tools and small products, Agnes — a free uncapped model paired with a proper coding app — is close to a cheat code. But Agnes Code's plain-English direction opens the door much wider than that: you describe, it builds, which puts non-coders genuinely in the game rather than politely tolerated at the edge of it.
And if you already run an agent stack, the calculation is the one I apply to everything: free engines are for auditioning behind your existing setup. Whether you're experimenting with Prime Agent, testing Magnitude, or running my own Agent OS, Agnes is another capable free engine to try — and the audition now costs nothing.
The Bigger Trend
Zoom out and Agnes is a data point on a line I keep drawing: frontier-ish AI keeps getting cheaper and more open. I saw it with Ling 3.0 Flash, I see it every time I update my roundup of the best open-source models for the Hermes agent, and now I'm seeing it from a direction nobody had on their bingo card — a smaller country's free model chasing the top names in public.
That's the real takeaway for anyone building a business with this stuff. When capable models like Agnes keep arriving free or nearly free, the model stops being the advantage. The advantage moves to whoever actually builds with it while everyone else is still debating leaderboards.
My Four Tips for Getting Started
- Start small. One clean page, not the dream project. A landing page or a calculator teaches you how Agnes works; a forty-page platform mostly teaches you how to feel overwhelmed.
- Be specific in plain words. List the sections you want, name the parts, spell out the inputs. "Sections for coaching calls, tutorials, prompt libraries and a member map" got me a proper page from Agnes. "Make me a website" gets anybody very little.
- Always check the work. It's fast and it's free, and you're in charge. Read what Agnes built, click every button, and treat yourself as the editor rather than the audience.
- Don't chase every model. Pick one, build with it, get good. A new launch drops every fortnight; treating each one as a fresh start is entertainment, while shipped pages are progress.

FAQs
What is Agnes AI?
Agnes is the model family from Sapiens AI, Singapore's homegrown AI company — multimodal from the ground up across text, images and video. The current line-up is Agnes 2.5 Flash, which is free, the Agnes Code desktop app for building inside your own projects, and the bigger Agnes 2.5 Pro on the way for the heavy jobs.
Is Agnes AI really free?
Yes — and per Agnes, it's the full model with no usage cap, not a stripped-down teaser, and that isn't ending on a hidden date. Their scale claim backs the seriousness of it: trillions of words of work handled for free in a single recent week. Their figure, but not the shape of a half-hearted trial.
Is Agnes better than the big names?
Their own charts say it's close — Pro's roughly 82.7 on SWE-bench Verified sits in the same neighbourhood as the top models — but independent tests are still pending, so nobody can honestly hand it the crown yet. My advice is to skip the debate entirely: run one of your own tasks through Agnes and through whatever you currently use, side by side. You'll have a verdict in an afternoon, and it will cost you nothing.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Agnes Code takes plain English — describe the page or tool you want and it reads the project, writes the files and checks its own work. You should still review everything it produces, but describing clearly is the skill here, not programming.
What should I build first?
Something small and real. A one-page site for your offer, or a simple calculator for a number you actually care about — mirror my tests rather than attempting the dream project on day one. One clean win teaches you more than a grand plan that stalls.
The Verdict
Worth trying today — that's this Agnes AI review in one line. A free, uncapped, full-strength model with a plain-English desktop app is a serious offer from a serious new player, and the fact that it comes from Singapore rather than the usual two capitals makes the trend even clearer. The self-reported benchmarks keep me from calling it a champion; the three builds it handled for me keep me from dismissing the numbers as marketing.
So do what I did: put it on Goldie Bench, my own testing setup — the same task through Agnes and through your current model, side by side. That comparison, on your work, is the only benchmark that has ever actually mattered.
