NDPix walks you through it. This page is just company.
The connection happens inside the program in two short steps. Here you can see what each step looks like and get plain answers to the words that sound technical. About ten minutes, once, with no technical background needed.
First, choose how you want to connect.
Open the AI Assistant in NDPix and you will see this screen. Pick the option you prefer; you can change it later. If you are unsure, NDPix marks a good place to start.
A model label such as “free” can change. Check the provider page before relying on it.Then, connect your own account.
On that service’s website, create an account and copy the access key: a long code, like a password. Back in NDPix, paste it, choose one of the suggested visual options, then test and continue. That is the whole setup.
One account lets you explore models from different providers. Look for models marked as able to accept images.
NVIDIA lets you explore models from its catalog and create a key for your own account.
Use this only if you already have a provider that offers an OpenAI-compatible connection.
Advanced settings are there if you need them.
They are for people connecting a custom service. Most people can leave them alone, and NDPix always offers a way back to the simple mode.
Questions you might have
What is an API key?+
It is a private connection code created by an AI provider. It lets NDPix ask that provider for help using your own account. It is not the password for your email or computer.
Why does NDPix need one?+
The provider uses the key to recognize that a request comes from your account. That is how the provider applies its own access, limits, pricing, and data rules.
How should I treat it?+
Paste it only into NDPix. Do not send it by message, publish it, or share it with another person. If you think it was shared, revoke it with the provider and create a new one.
