When to use Doozy with OpenRouter
When you want AI agents doing real work and you want to pay the model provider directly instead of a per-seat markup. Your OpenRouter key covers the AI. Doozy handles the tasks, the context, the memory, and the approval step before anything consequential goes out.
Runs on your key work from the web or your phone even when your laptop is closed. That's the main advantage over Codex subscription runs today.
When OpenRouter isn't needed
If you already have a Codex subscription and don't mind keeping your laptop open for runs. Or if you're on a paid Doozy plan, which includes its own hosted execution and doesn't use your provider keys.
How it works
Save your OpenRouter key in Doozy's workspace settings. That's the only setup step. From that point, every agent run uses your key and OpenRouter bills you directly.
Doozy wraps each model call in the context it needs: the to-do, the capture behind it, what the agent learned from past tasks, and your preferences. Over time, that context gets richer, so your agents need less direction and produce better first drafts.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I put my OpenRouter key?
In workspace settings, under model and provider settings. Save it as a secret. Never paste it into a conversation or a to-do description.
Does using my own key make Doozy free?
Yes. Bring your own AI and the core product costs nothing for up to five workspace members.
Can I pick which model each agent uses?
Not yet through OpenRouter. Codex is the provider that supports per-agent model selection today.
Does the OpenRouter key cover transcription?
No. Transcription uses your Deepgram key, and connected app actions use your Composio key. Each provider bills you separately.
How do I keep costs under control?
Set workspace budgets in Doozy. The usage view separates model usage from transcription so you can see where the cost is going.
How many apps does Doozy connect to?
1,000+. OpenRouter powers the AI, Composio powers the apps.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. Runs on Doozy servers, review from iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, or web.
Is this free?
Free forever. You pay OpenRouter at cost. Doozy charges nothing.
