Use your own Groq key

Connect Groq with your own GROQ_API_KEY. TEKIZ.AI does not grant GroqCloud, Llama, or Mixtral access.

OpenAI-compatible setup

Point OpenAI SDKs, Codex, Cursor, Aider, Continue, OpenHands, and compatible apps at https://api.tekiz.ai/v1. TEKIZ.AI Router can use Groq or another model you connected.

Use Llama for quick tasks

Send chat, extraction, and short tool tasks to your Groq-hosted Llama or Mixtral models, with stronger or local models available when needed.

Set up Groq setup

export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.tekiz.ai/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk_tekiz_your_generated_key
export GROQ_API_KEY=your_authorized_groq_key

curl "$OPENAI_BASE_URL/chat/completions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "tekizai/fast",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Use Groq if it is the fastest healthy authorized route"}]
  }'

Use more than one Groq key

Add multiple authorized Groq keys. TEKIZ.AI shares requests across keys that are working and pauses only the key that fails.

Keep working when an account is busy

When Groq is rate-limited, TEKIZ.AI can try another key, provider, local Ollama model, or private model you allowed.

Send files to services that accept them

Images, audio, video, and documents are sent only to models that can handle that kind of input.

Use accounts you are allowed to use

TEKIZ.AI provides routing, API keys, usage limits, account tools, request history, and backups. It does not include Groq access or bypass Groq terms.

Next steps

Create an API key, copy the hosted quickstart, use the coding-agent setup, or estimate routing fit.

Stay within your approved services

If your company approves only GroqCloud, keep that boundary. TEKIZ.AI can reduce token burn while making better use of existing subscriptions and account billing.
