To try Azure AI Search for free, [open a trial subscription](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/free-trial/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F) and then create your search service by choosing the **Free** tier. You can have one free search service per Azure subscription. Free search services are intended for short-term evaluation of the product for nonproduction applications. Generally, you can complete all of the quickstarts and most tutorials, except for those featuring semantic ranker (it requires a billable service). Free services that are inactive for an extended period of time can be deleted by Microsoft to make room for other services.

Alternatively, you can use free credits to try out paid Azure services. With this approach, you can create your search service at **Basic** or higher to get more capacity. Your credit card is never charged unless you explicitly change your settings and ask to be charged. Another approach is to [activate Azure credits in a Visual Studio subscription](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/member-offers/msdn-benefits-details/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F). A Visual Studio subscription gives you credits every month you can use for paid Azure services.

**Free** creates a [limited search service](search-limits-quotas-capacity.md#subscription-limits) for smaller projects, like running tutorials and code samples. Internally, system resources are shared among multiple subscribers. You can't scale a free service, run significant workloads, and some premium features aren't available. You can only have one free search service per Azure subscription. If the service is inactive for an extended period of time, it might be deleted to free up capacity, especially if the region is under capacity constraints.
