# Jiekou.AI — Bring Your Own Key

Route requests through your own Jiekou.AI account ([BYOK](/features/byok)); no platform credits are charged. You need a API key string.

## Get your API key

1. Sign in at [Jiekou.AI](https://jiekou.ai/) with Google, GitHub or email.
2. Open [Key management](https://jiekou.vip/settings/key-management) and create an API key.
3. Copy the key and keep it for the **API key** field below.

## Gotchas

Jiekou.AI is billed from your own account balance, so top it up before the first request. The key is never added to the shared pool.

## Add it to AnyRouter

1. Open **[Dashboard → BYOK](https://anyrouter.dev/dashboard/byok)**, find **Jiekou.AI** under **Available** and click **Add key**.
2. Paste the key.
3. Click **Save**. AnyRouter validates the key against Jiekou.AI first; on failure the dialog shows the upstream error and nothing is saved.

- Create key: [Jiekou.AI console](https://jiekou.vip/settings/key-management)
- Default base URL (editable on the key form): `https://api.jiekou.ai/openai/v1`
