Connect your AI

Bring your own model providers so Studio runs on your contracts and boundaries.

Studio does not ship a locked-in model. Your organization connects the LLM providers you already trust — then members chat, assign agents, and draft artefacts on those models.

Connect a provider

  1. Open Settings → Models.
  2. Add a provider, enter credentials, and test the connection.
  3. Enable the models you want available in your organization.
  4. Set defaults (and a fallback if you use one) so new sessions start cleanly.

If no model is connected yet, Studio shows a soft gate — Connect your AI — so an admin can finish setup before sessions are fully unlocked.

Why bring your own

  • Your contracts — use the providers and tiers your company already approved.
  • Your boundaries — keep inference on the routes and accounts you control.
  • Your choice — swap or add models without changing how agents and the Stage work.

Members need at least one enabled model to chat and run agents. Admins own the connection; everyone else works inside what the organization enables.
