AI Usage & API Keys

AI Usage & API Keys

Skopx has two ways to power AI features: included AI usage on every plan, and Bring Your Own Key (BYOK).

Included AI on Every Plan

Solo includes 500,000 AI tokens every month, and Team includes 2.3 million AI tokens per seat every month. No API key is required on either: sign up and start chatting. Included usage is metered per organization at provider list rates with zero markup, and requests run through a platform-held key with the same encryption and data-isolation guarantees as every other request.

  • When it runs out. You can add credits to keep going, or add your own API key as overflow.
  • Transparency. Usage is billed at the provider's published rates. Skopx adds no margin.

BYOK (Bring Your Own Key)

BYOK lets you use your own model provider key. On any plan you can add one as overflow, so AI keeps running once your included usage is spent.

Why use BYOK?

  • Cost control. Pay Anthropic directly and track usage in your own dashboard.
  • Higher limits. Your own API key may have higher rate limits depending on your Anthropic plan.
  • Compliance. Some organizations require all API calls to go through their own accounts for audit purposes.

Setting Up Your API Key

  1. Go to Settings > API Keys.
  2. Click Add API Key.
  3. Paste your Anthropic API key (starts with sk-ant-).
  4. Click Save.

Skopx encrypts your key using AES-256 before storing it. The plain text key is never logged or visible after you save it.

How It Works

Once your key is saved, AI queries in Skopx use your Anthropic account. This includes:

  • Chat responses
  • Document generation
  • Insight analysis
  • Agent tasks

On every plan, included usage is consumed first; your own key covers overflow.

Managing Your Key

  • Update. Paste a new key to replace the existing one.
  • Remove. Click Remove Key. Your included monthly usage keeps working on every plan; only the overflow beyond it stops.
  • Usage. Check your Anthropic dashboard at console.anthropic.com for detailed usage and billing.

Supported Providers

BYOK is available for:

  • Anthropic. Claude Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku.
  • OpenAI, Google, xAI, Mistral, Groq, DeepSeek, and OpenRouter. Each key unlocks that provider's models.

Add a key under Settings > API Keys and that provider's models light up in the picker.

Tips

  • Use a dedicated API key for Skopx so you can track its usage separately.
  • Set up usage alerts in your Anthropic account to avoid surprises.
  • Your key is encrypted at rest and never shared with any third party.
