What does real-debrid do?

I was looking through the megathread and saw this real-debrid thing. I have heard this name some times so I read what it does but wasn't able to understand it. If someone could explain it to me I would appreciate it.

Also, it caught my attention that "it's a good way to prevent your IP from ever hitting the torrent's swarm, which is the main cause of receiving copyright infringement letters". Does this mean it's an alternative to a VPN when torrenting? Is it like a seedboxes or something? Are there any free alternatives?

Besides the download torrent capabilities. It can download from some hosters (like 1ficher, and mega) as it was premium. So you pay for the real-debrid subscription which is low and has premium in a lot of those hosters. It is awesome and I strongly recommend.

How can I get started?
