BYOK: bring your own key

What BYOK means

BYOK stands for bring your own key. You get the same private, always-on agent and fully managed hosting as the standard plan — the only difference is that you connect your own model provider key and pay that provider for usage directly, instead of Atlas Ally including model usage in your plan.

Pricing

BYOK is €29/month (or €290/year), compared to €49/month for the managed plan that includes model usage. It's the cheaper option if you already have model provider credits — it's one decision: our keys, or yours.

What to know about your own key

Your key is governed by your provider's own plan terms. Atlas Ally cannot control vendor-side rate limits or account-level enforcement on your provider's end — if your provider throttles or limits your key, that's between you and them.
