Using Your Own API Keys (BYOK)
Provide your own API keys for AI services to significantly reduce credit costs. The discount depends on whether you’re using workflows or agents:| Automation Type | Without BYOK | With BYOK | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Workflow AI Nodes | 2-30 credits per call (varies by model tier) | 1 credit per call | Up to 97% |
| Agent AI Model Credits | Full token-based cost | 50% off token-based cost | 50% |
Tool credits and workflow base costs are not affected by BYOK — the discount applies only to AI model usage.
For Workflows
- Use free native nodes when possible
- Provide your own API keys (reduces AI costs to 1 credit)
- Batch operations to reduce workflow runs
- Avoid unnecessary enrichment lookups
For Agents
- Provide your own API key (50% off AI model credits)
- Choose appropriate models (don’t use Expert for simple tasks)
- Start new conversations for different topics
- Limit tools to only what’s needed
- Write clear, specific prompts
- Optimize workflows that agents call
- Pro plan or higher
- Your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google AI account
