Open router BYOK
BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) is a feature that allows you to connect your own API key from third-party providers like OpenRouter instead of relying solely on Greta's built-in credit system. This gives you more flexibility and control over the AI models you use and how you're billed for them.

How BYOK Works in Greta:
Access Requirements:
- Enterprise Users: Get BYOK for FREE - no additional purchase required
- Non-Enterprise Users: Can enable BYOK by purchasing the OpenRouter Add-on for $5

Setup Process:
1. Enable BYOK
- For non-enterprise users: Purchase the OpenRouter Add-on first
- Enterprise users can skip straight to setup
2. Configure Your API Key
- Go to Settings → Integrations
- Find the OpenRouter section
- Enter your personal OpenRouter API key
- Save the configuration

3. How It Works
- Once configured, Greta routes all model requests through your OpenRouter key
- All billing for model usage happens directly on your OpenRouter account
- You get access to ALL OpenRouter-supported models within Greta
Key Benefits:
Model Flexibility
- Access to dozens of different AI models
- Choose models optimized for specific tasks
- Experiment with different model providers
- Stay current with the latest model releases
Billing Control

Usage Scenarios:

Important Notes:
- You still need Greta credits for platform features and functionality

BYOK transforms Greta into an even more powerful platform by giving you complete control over which AI models you use and how you pay for them!
