# Use your own LLM API Keys

The "API Providers" tab shows the full list of currently supported model vendors within AirOps, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini. In order to bring your model to AirOps, you need an API Key from the respective vendor. Once connected, you can use your existing models from within the LLM Step, Transcription Step, or Image Generation Step.

## Pricing

When you connect your own model with your API Key, the pricing will change as follows:

* Cost of Service: you will pay the cost of the service directly to the provider e.g. token cost, transcription cost, or image generation cost
* AirOps Cost: you will only be charged one task for the corresponding step in AirOps.
