no cracked warez here, buddy... . ;)
In all seriousness: I think the people here that use it all pay the 25 bucks.
i don't know of any comparable freeware program...

sorry, i have to correct myself:
I think you can use it free a couple of times by subscribing. But then you have to show the green... ;)

For $25 you should be able to get a simple cheap keyboard from eBay, That would do the trick.

Any chromatic tuner will do something similar to what Bendometer does. There are various free (as in Open source) software chromatic tuners and cheap handheld tuners. None of them show a harmonica or light up holes on the picture of a harmonica as you play like the Bendometer does. That stuff, IMO, is only useful to beginners anyway. Once you get good enough you don't need the bendometer (and hence you won't renew your subscription). A good chromatic tuner will be useful FOREVER! FWIW I was never able to get the Bendometer to work on my computer. I had too recent a version of the JRE (Bendometer is Java), and the Bendometer was not forward compatible to my version of Java
