BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys)

Modified on Fri, 31 Jan at 11:45 AM

Our newest BYOK feature allows premium users to integrate their own API keys for OpenAI, Eleven Labs, and Azure Speech directly into the Insighto.ai platform.

This feature enables greater control over data security, privacy, and platform usage. By using their own keys, users can:

Enhance Security & Privacy – Maintain full control over their data by using their own encryption or API access credentials.
Bypass Platform Limits – Extend usage beyond default platform-imposed restrictions, utilizing their own API quotas for scalability.

This feature is ideal for users who require increased flexibility and higher resource limits while maintaining full ownership of their API interactions.

Required & Optional Keys for BYOK

When using the BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) feature, the following API keys are required:

Mandatory Keys:
- OpenAI API Key – Required for AI processing and responses.
- Azure Speech Key – Required for speech synthesis and voice capabilities.
