Does Taskade support bring your own API keys?
Taskade documents bring-your-own AI provider keys on Enterprise workspaces only. What lower tiers get instead, and which AI task tools offer BYOK for free.
Yes, but only on Enterprise. Taskade documents that Enterprise workspaces can bring their own AI provider keys. Lower tiers don't offer this option.
Why this matters
If you want to pay your AI provider directly instead of a markup through the product, you need BYO key support. Taskade offers it, but only to Enterprise customers. On every other plan, the AI cost is bundled into what you pay Taskade.
This is a different approach from products like Doozy where BYO keys are the free plan, not the most expensive one.
What Taskade says
"Enterprise workspaces can bring their own AI provider keys."
How to check your options
- Check if your Taskade plan is Enterprise.
- If not, the AI cost is bundled into your subscription.
- If BYO keys matter, compare Taskade Enterprise pricing to products where it's free.
