Overview

EnConvo supports a wide range of AI providers, giving you the flexibility to choose the best model for your needs. You can use cloud-based APIs or run models locally for complete privacy.

​
Setup Steps

1

Open Settings

Go to Settings → AI Model
2

Choose a provider

Select a provider such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, EnConvo Cloud, OpenRouter, Ollama, or LM Studio.
3

Configure Credentials

Open the provider’s credential settings and enter the required API key, base URL, OAuth account, or local server endpoint.
4

Validate the connection

Click Validate when available. For local providers, make sure the local server is running before validating.
5

Select Model

Choose a model from the dropdown. If the list is empty, fix credentials first, then refresh or reopen the provider settings.
6

Test with a short prompt

Send a short message before using the provider in long workflows, agents, or automations.

​
Supported Providers

​
Subscription Plans

Use these when you want EnConvo to connect through an existing consumer subscription instead of a token-billed developer API.

​

​
Validation Checklist

Use this checklist when any provider fails to respond:
Confirm the API key, OAuth login, subscription connection, or local bearer token is current. Revoke and replace exposed API keys.
Cloud providers may reject requests when billing is not configured, credits are exhausted, or rate limits are reached.
Use the provider base URL, not a full endpoint path. For OpenAI-compatible services, the base URL usually ends in /v1.
Some models require account approval, region availability, paid billing, or a specific deployment name.
For Ollama, LM Studio, Hermes, and OpenClaw, make sure the local server is running and reachable from the same machine or LAN address used in EnConvo.
