FreeCNAM is reborn as OpenCNAM
 The Free CNAM Project was launched less than 10 months ago, in response to a large number of requests for access to the API backend used by [http://tnid.us/](http://tnid.us). In the months since its inception, FreeCNAM.org has grown in popularity, becoming the de facto source for Caller ID Name in the PBX developer and hobbyist communities. Expanding demand, coupled with requests for high-availability, carrier-grade service, led to the need for a complete ground-up rebuild of the entire system. We, at Telephony Research Services, are proud to announce that this rebuild is complete, and that this high-availability, carrier-grade service has entered beta testing. Tomorrow, the Free CNAM servers will be switched off. With a few simple keystrokes, this project will come to a close; an end to an era, and the beginning of another. Like the phoenix emerging from its ashes, FreeCNAM is reborn as OpenCNAM. OpenCNAM is **completely free to most users**, allowing 60 dips per hour without registration. For those requiring higher volume, an API key is required. Although pricing has not yet been established, once the beta period is over we expect to charge around $0.001 per successful query. We invite former FreeCNAM users to participate in our beta. Beta participants will be allowed unlimited free CNAM dips during the entirety of the beta period, and will be offered discounted rates should they decide to become customers at the end of the beta period.
