From the Dracon workshop
We maintain structured catalogs of AI providers, games, music, and tools — these articles are written from that data, not from vibes. When the data changes, the articles get regenerated.
- The AI price war went nuclear this week: DeepSeek V4 Flash at $0.14/M tokens and GPT-5.6 Luna down 80% — in the same 24 hours OpenAI cut GPT-5.6 Luna 80% on July 30; DeepSeek shipped V4 Flash to public beta July 31 from $0.14/M tokens. We track 42 AI providers — here's what changed, with numbers.
- 22 of the 42 AI providers we track have a free tier. Only 7 are actually useful. We maintain rate-limit data on 42 AI providers. Most 'free tiers' are demo taps. These 7 hold up for real work — with actual limits and how to mix them via BYOK.
- 16 games in the pipeline, 1 playable today: an honest state of the Dracon arcade Our games catalog tracks 16 projects from playable to candidate. What each status means, what's playable now, and why we publish the pipeline honestly.
- 1,000 tracks, 100 mixes, 82 mood tags: we built a free focus-music library and kept the receipts The Dracon music library is 1,000 generated tracks in 100 curated 'cooks', every recipe kept. The data behind it and how to use it.
- Where do your AI keys go when you use our tools? A straight answer BYOK tools ask for the most sensitive string you own. Exactly what happens to your keys across Dracon tools — extension, chat, vault — and what we never do.
