Setup and Install

Paramus v1.0 launches July 1.

For production use, we recommend waiting for v1.1 (ACS Fall 2025, mid-August).

1. Download Copilot

Here you can download the Windows version of the Paramus Copilot, ready for immediate installation. The macOS version of the Paramus Copilot is also available here for direct download and setup.

2. Get License

Please note that both versions MAC and PC require a valid license issued by Paramus to operate. Basic features are available for lifetime use, but registration is required.

Free for (Academic Access), Terms apply (Legal), see also End User License Agreement (EULA)

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.
