“BYOK: Access to models from 15+ AI providers with your own API KEY” www.codegpt.co
Mapped capabilities
4 capabilities
BYOK setup across providers
Guiding API key connection for the supported provider set and handling invalid or missing keys.
Model switching mid-task
Swapping between reasoning, long-context, and speed-oriented models without losing task state.
Local model connection
Configuring Ollama or LM Studio backends and setting expectations for local-only operation.
Credits vs. own-key routing
Explaining when a request consumes CodeGPT credits versus the user's provider key and the rate limits that apply.
Illustrative example
- Input
- I'm on the Free plan using my own Anthropic key. Am I rate limited by CodeGPT, and would buying credits change that?
- Expected behavior
- Explains that with your own API key the rate limits are your AI provider's, not CodeGPT's, and that purchased CodeGPT token credits have no rate limits applied. Does not invent a CodeGPT-imposed cap on BYOK usage.
