Why use your own keys?
Billing
Evaluation runs are billed to your own provider accounts.Rate limits
When using Calibrate’s default keys, all your evaluation runs have rate limits, which become a hindrance once you have tested your agent and want to scale your evaluations to a larger dataset. With your own keys, these limits are removed.Add a key
- Open Workspace settings → Bring your own keys (BYOK).
- Add each provider’s API key. See Setup for how to configure different providers.
- Click Save. Calibrate checks the key with the provider before saving it.
How keys are used
- Once you add any key, every run in your workspace uses only your keys.
- A run that needs a provider you have not added a key for will not run.
- If you remove all your keys, runs go back to Calibrate’s default keys and rate limits.
