Connect your AI accounts

Bring the AIs you already use — SideChic coordinates them, it doesn’t replace them. Your keys are stored encrypted on this device and are never sent to Atelier’s servers. Don’t have a key? You can skip this — Atelier’s built-in engine runs your DEBs automatically.

Bringing your own key changes who pays for the raw model — you do, at your provider’s cost. It doesn’t replace your Sidechic plan: the memory, your DEB, and everything that makes it yours live here with us. The key powers the thinking; Atelier is still home.

Your API keys

Bring your own provider key and Atelier runs on it — your cost, your control. By default keys are encrypted and stored only on this device; they are never sent to Atelier's servers unless you tick “keep on my account” below. (Secure storage is unavailable in this browser.)

Atelier house engine — powering you by default ✓You don't need a key to use Atelier — our own engine runs you out of the box. It's managed by Atelier and embedded in the system; you can't see or edit it, by design. Add your own key below only if you'd rather run on your own provider and cost.

Add a key

Provider

Open models — low cost. (Same family powers Atelier’s house engine.)

Label (so you know which is which)

Key (paste it — shown only as you type, never again)

Premium providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) cost more per call. As Atelier grows we'll negotiate discounted volume access — the way the big players get it — and pass the savings on.

On this device

No keys yet. Add one above to run Atelier on your own provider.
