Freebuff is a coding agent you don't pay for, because advertising pays for it. The claim in that headline is extreme. A reasonable person can't read "We make coding 100% free" and stop there, since your first reaction is that it can't possibly be true.

The subheading answers the how in five words: "Powerful coding models, funded by ads." Leading with the benefit is the right call when your product includes advertising to reduce costs for users. The cost turns up on the second line, once you already want the thing.

They're really going for it. A claim big enough to be doubted earns you the next line of attention, provided the mechanism is sitting directly underneath it, because "how?" is usually the reader's very next thought.

Why this H1 works:

• Competitor prices charted against zero
  Cursor at $720 a year and Devin at $2,400 sit in a bar chart under the hero, beside Freebuff's $0

• A live count of who already trusts it
  "Join 467,025 developers" answers the doubt that a free tool has nobody using it

• The hardware line names the real audience
  "Older PC without AVX2?" speaks to people on cheap machines, who are exactly who a free coding agent is for

• Five surfaces offered in one row
  Desktop, CLI, Web, Cloud and Chat let you pick where you want it before committing to a download
