Overview of AI Providers You can choose between OpenAI and Google Gemini based on your budget and needs. Each provider handles speed, cost, and language support differently.

Follow these steps to connect OpenAI: Enter your API Key: Get your key from the OpenAI Dashboard and paste it into the settings field. We hide part of the key for security. Select a model: Choose the best model for your goals. Use GPT-4o for complex tasks, or GPT-3.5-Turbo for faster, cheaper tasks. Check your credits: Ensure your OpenAI account has enough credits to run searches and generate content. Configuring Google Gemini Settings Easily integrate Google Gemini by entering your API key and selecting your preferred model. Google Gemini is a great alternative if you want to use Google AI Studio or need a cost-effective option. Enter your API Key: Get your key from Google AI Studio and enter it into the plugin. Select a model: Use Gemini 3.1 Pro for complex content or Gemini 3.1 Flash for faster performance. Security We prioritize your data security: Data Encryption: API keys are encrypted before they are saved to your database. Server-Side Requests: Your keys are never shown in your website’s front-end code. All requests stay on your server. Live Updates: Settings apply immediately without requiring a cache clear or restart. Frequently Asked Questions Can I use both OpenAI and Google Gemini at the same time? No, you can only use one provider at a time. However, you can switch between them easily whenever you like. What happens if my API key fails? If your key stops working, you will see an error in your dashboard. AI features like search and chatbots will stop until you provide a new, valid key or add more credits. Are my posts sent to the AI? Only the content you choose to index is sent to the AI. It is only used to power your site’s internal search and chatbot tools.
