Guide

Add your AI API key

Connect one supported provider to power AI answers, resumes, cover letters, and outreach.

Jobora uses Bring Your Own Key. Your Jobora subscription and your AI-provider billing are separate, and you only need one working provider key to begin testing AI-powered workflows.

For most users, start with one of the fast, lower-cost models that matches your provider and current budget. The extension supports Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite (Recommended) and Gemini 2.5 Flash, OpenAI GPT-4o mini plus GPT-5 Nano and GPT-5.4 Nano, DeepSeek V4 Flash, and Anthropic Claude 3.5 Haiku.

05

Check spend, quotas, and any provider-side warnings regularly.

Verified provider and model summary

  • Google Gemini: Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite (Recommended) and Gemini 2.5 Flash. Good starting point for many users because Flash-Lite is the current default low-cost option in this product.
  • OpenAI: GPT-4o mini, GPT-5 Nano, and GPT-5.4 Nano. GPT-4o mini is the steadier writing-focused option, while the Nano models are configured as lower-cost high-volume options.
  • DeepSeek: DeepSeek V4 Flash. This is the verified DeepSeek model wired into the current catalog.
  • Anthropic: Claude 3.5 Haiku. This is the Anthropic model currently supported in this codebase.

Gemini setup

Open Google AI Studio, create a key, then in Jobora choose Gemini and either Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite (Recommended) or Gemini 2.5 Flash. Save the key, confirm billing or quotas for your account if needed, and test one generation. Start with the provider's minimum available balance or a small test budget that feels safe for your account.

OpenAI setup

OpenAI API billing is separate from any ChatGPT subscription. Create a platform API key, add billing or credits as required by your account, then in Jobora choose OpenAI and a supported model such as GPT-4o mini or one of the current Nano options before testing.

DeepSeek setup

Create a DeepSeek key in the provider platform, choose DeepSeek and DeepSeek V4 Flash in Jobora, save the key, then add a small test balance if your account requires it and monitor usage from the provider dashboard.

Anthropic setup

If you want to use Anthropic, create an Anthropic console API key, choose Anthropic and Claude 3.5 Haiku in Jobora, confirm billing access for your account, and test a single workflow before broader use.

warning

Protect your key

Do not publish or share your API key. Use provider-side spending limits or budget controls where available, rotate a key if it is exposed, and remove keys you no longer use.
