For AI agents: a documentation index is available at the root level at /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt. Append /llms.txt to any URL for a page-level index, or .md for the markdown version of any page.
Runtype comes with platform keys, so you can start using popular AI models without adding any provider accounts. If you want dedicated rate limits, direct provider billing, or access to a provider’s full model catalog, you can connect your own keys in Settings.
Every Runtype account includes platform keys for popular models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and open-source models through Mixlayer. You can start building Flows and Agents right away, with no extra setup.
Why connect your own keys?
Adding your own provider keys is optional. It helps when you want dedicated rate limits, direct provider billing, access to the full model catalog, or more headroom for high-volume production workloads.
Supported providers
Runtype supports direct providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and xAI; inference providers such as Together.ai, Amazon Bedrock, Vertex AI, and Mixlayer; gateway providers such as Vercel AI Gateway, OpenRouter, Cloudflare Workers AI, and Azure; and any OpenAI-compatible provider via the generic OpenAI-compatible configuration. Models from creators like Mistral, Cohere, AI21, Meta, DeepSeek, and Qwen are accessible through these gateway and inference providers.
Add a provider
You can start either from a model or from a provider.
Option A: Start from a model
Go to Settings → Models.
Open the My Providers tab.
Click Add Model and browse or search the catalog.
Select a model. If it needs a key you have not added yet, Runtype prompts you to enter one.
Option B: Start from a provider
Go to Settings → Models.
Open the My Providers tab.
Find the provider card and click Configure.
Enter your key details and click Save API Key.
Enable the models you want to use.
You can connect multiple providers at once. For example, you might use OpenAI for GPT models and image generation, Anthropic for long-context work, and Google for multimodal use cases, then switch between them across your Flows and Agents.
Get API keys
Each provider has its own setup flow. Use the provider’s dashboard to create the credentials, then add them in Settings → Models under My Providers.
Create an AWS access key with Bedrock permissions.
In Runtype, open Amazon Bedrock → Configure.
Enter the access key, secret key, and region.
Vertex AI
Create a service account in Google Cloud with Vertex AI permissions.
In Runtype, open Vertex AI → Configure.
Upload the service account JSON and set the project and location.
OpenAI-compatible providers
Get a base URL and API key from your provider.
In Runtype, open Generic OpenAI-Compatible → Configure.
Enter the base URL and API key, then define the models you want available.
Keep your API keys private. Do not share them publicly or commit them to version control.
Choose which models to enable
In Settings → Models, click Add Model or open a provider card.
Select the models you want to use.
Enabled models appear in model pickers across Runtype, including Flows, Agents, and the Playground.
Only enable the models you actively use. This keeps model pickers shorter and easier to scan.
Understand costs with BYOK
When you use your own keys, the provider bills you directly. Runtype does not add extra charges on top. Check your provider’s billing dashboard for exact costs.
Remove a provider
Go to Settings → Models and open My Providers.
Find the provider and click Manage keys.
Remove the key you no longer need and confirm.
If a model is available through platform keys, related Flows and Agents can continue using it after you remove your own key. If the model depends only on your key, update the model selection in those Flows or Agents.
