Hello Devs! 
We all know the struggle of trying to test the latest AI models. NVIDIA's NIM microservices offer incredible power, but signing up usually requires a phone number verification, and using your personal Gmail can feel risky or limiting.

The Problem with Standard Sign-ups:
- Requires Phone Number (OTP) verification.
- Strict limits on personal Gmail accounts.
- Privacy concerns.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Get Your Secure Temp Email:Go to my tool here: temail.dreampeaks.qzz.io.
- Note: Unlike generic temp mails, these are designed to look like valid business/work emails to verification systems.
- Sign Up for NVIDIA:Head over to the NVIDIA API portal. Use the email address you generated in Step 1.
- Verify & Activate:Check the inbox on the T-Email tool for your verification code.
- Generate Your Key:Once logged in, you can generate your API key immediately. You will now have access to top-tier models (like Llama 3, Mistral, etc.) with a 40 RPM limit.
- Zero Cost: Completely free to use.
- Privacy First: No need to expose your main email or phone number.
- Developer Friendly: 40 RPM is surprisingly high for free tiers, allowing for robust testing.
