Add Provider Keys

Cencori routes your requests to AI providers using your own API keys. This is called "Bring Your Own Keys" (BYOK).

Why BYOK?

  • ✓You control your AI spend directly with providers
  • ✓Use your existing API keys and quotas
  • ✓Switch providers without changing your Cencori code
  • ✓Your keys are encrypted at rest

Add Your First Provider Key

  1. 1

    Navigate to Providers

    In your project sidebar, click Providers

  2. 2

    Choose a provider

    Pick one you have an API key for:

    OpenAI

    GPT-4, GPT-4o

    Anthropic

    Claude 3.5, 4

    Google

    Gemini 2.5 Flash

  3. 3

    Paste your API key

    Enter your key and save. Cencori encrypts it immediately.

Where to get API keys

Your keys are secure. Cencori encrypts all API keys using AES-256 encryption. They're only decrypted when making requests to providers.
