OpenBSD neither includes nor promotes any non-free software.  However,

like any unbiased material, it does contain a complete and detailed

reference list, called 'ports'.
Please note, that there is no automated process about getting ports

onto your system. The only thing that the OpenBSD install process can

install for you is the base system, which actually happens to have a

lot of software in it as it is, from X and apache, to gcc and lynx. So

unlike other BSD systems, which heavily depend on you installing both

ports and packages for various components of the system, OpenBSD

requires neither ports nor packages for the day to day operation.
