Feature · Your own AI key
Bring your own AI: OpenAI, Claude or Gemini
CreatLab doesn't lock you into one AI company. Connect your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude) or Google (Gemini), and your agents run on it.
How it works
When you set up a workspace, you choose its AI and paste your API key. CreatLab checks the key with the provider (a free check that doesn't use any tokens), then stores it encrypted. It's never shown again, not even to you, and never sent to your browser.
From then on, every reply in that workspace runs on your key. You pay your AI provider only for the tokens you actually use, at their own prices.
A different AI for each workspace
Each workspace picks its own provider. Your research workspace can run on Claude, your marketing workspace on OpenAI and a side project on Gemini, all in one account. Already saved a key elsewhere? Reuse it in a new workspace with one click; each workspace keeps its own encrypted copy.
Web search and tools included
With all three providers, agents can search the web and show their sources, use your connected apps, read your files and open windows like charts, tables and email drafts.
See exactly what you use
The Usage dashboard shows the tokens each workspace used per day and per model, so there are no surprises on your provider's bill. For cheaper everyday work, switch an agent to Saver mode; for hard problems, Performance.
Questions
Which providers are supported?
OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude) and Google (Gemini). You need an API key from one of them; a ChatGPT or Claude chat subscription is not an API key.
Can CreatLab see my key?
The key is encrypted before it's stored and is only decrypted on the server for the moment a reply is made. It's never shown in the app or sent to your browser.
Do I need my own key?
During the free beta, yes. CreatLab credits, which work without a key, are coming soon.
