You can currently add API keys for OpenAI and Claude. You cannot add Gemini API keys because we do not offer any Gemini models on the platform.

Here’s a quick walkthrough of [how to add a Claude API key](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vp4we-ged4w).

Yes, we removed BYOK. We sent out a few emails about it, we removed it about a month ago. [See here.](https://community.pickaxe.co/t/new-pickaxe-credit-system-is-live/7391)
