Q: Is there an OpenAI-Compatible option in BYOK settings ?

OpenAI-Compatible setup (baseURL + API) is currently the AI Industry standard for BYOK. Is it included in BYOK for +Tier 5 ?

Thanks for your reply. OpenRouter is a good AI gateway, but there are other equally capable inference gateways.

Could BYOK support a custom OpenAI-Compatible API setting, where users can enter a custom Base URL and API key? This would let users connect their existing OpenAI-compatible gateway, such as OpenRouter, Together AI, DeepInfra, AWS or LLM Gateway.

OpenRouter is OpenAI compatible you can provide them with your OpenAI API key. You literally said that yourself in your own answer what is going on here?

"This would let users connect their existing OpenAI-compatible gateway, such as OpenRouter, Together AI, DeepInfra, AWS or LLM Gateway."

Yes, but having a custom OpenAI-Compatible API setting would allow users to connect other OpenAI-compatible providers as well. This gives users more flexibility, especially those who don’t use OpenRouter and want to keep using their existing AI gateway.

On the same topic, does BYOK support both text LLMs and image generation models?

I am not sure if you read my answer:

OpenRouter is OpenAI compatible you can provide them with your OpenAI API key.
You can do exactly that, use your OpenAI API key, provide it to OpenRouter and it will be used instead of charging you.

I read it carefully, thanks. At the moment, Writeseed’s BYOK feature is limited to OpenRouter only. So for users who already rely on another OpenAI-compatible gateway, they have no option, since there isn’t currently a custom OpenAI-compatible setting within Writeseed.

FYI, besides OpenRouter, several other AI gateways already provide similar “Bring your own provider API keys” features at no cost

"This would let users connect their existing OpenAI-compatible gateway, such as OpenRouter, Together AI, DeepInfra, AWS or LLM Gateway."

OpenRouter is what we offer which is OpenAI-compatible.

Thanks for your clarification and confirming that Writeseed’s BYOK feature is currently limited to OpenRouter only.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to use my main and fallback AI Gateways. Well, too bad for me, I guess 🙃
