3. API Key from LLM vendor

To use a large language model (LLM), for example in agent-based workflows, you need an API key from a supported vendor. Most providers offer free initial access or trial credits. Typical monthly usage costs range from $5 to $20, depending on the provider and usage volume.

Available vendors include:

• OpenAI: https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys
• Anthropic: https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys
• xAI: https://console.x.ai/
• Google Gemini: https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
• (local Ollama will be provided later this year)

Google Gemini currently offers a free API key with limited usage.

You can mix vendors and assign agents to different providers (in the Copilot settings).

4. (optional) Newsletter

You are encouraged to opt in to the newsletter, as Paramus software does not initiate update notifications by design—ensuring strict adherence to structured data privacy principles.
