Settings

Managing AI models

Use Settings > Models to choose the AI models that appear in Runtype model pickers and set the default model.

Before you begin

Sign in to Runtype and open the workspace whose model configurations you want to manage.

Open model settings

To open model settings, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Settings > Models.
  2. Review the connected providers and available models.

Review available models

Runtype provides platform keys, and you can bring your own key (BYOK) for supported providers:

  • Platform-key models: use Runtype platform credentials.
  • BYOK models: use credentials from a provider connection that you add.

Add or remove models

To add or remove a model, follow these steps:

  1. On Settings > Models, click Add Model.
  2. Filter the catalog by model creator, capability, context length, price, or search term.
  3. On the model card, click Add.
  4. To remove a model, open its actions menu in My Models and select Delete Configuration.

Only configured models appear in model pickers throughout Runtype. If you use BYOK, connect provider credentials before you add a model that requires them. For setup instructions, use the provider connection controls in Settings > Models.

When you work in an organization, all members share model availability, settings, and the default model. Runtype records the member who makes each change, but the organization owns the configuration.

Set a default model

To set the default model, follow these steps:

  1. On Settings > Models, open the My Models tab.
  2. On a model card, open the actions menu.
  3. Select Set as Default.

Runtype uses the default model when you do not select a model in a Flow or Agent step.

Review cost and usage

When available, configured model cards show the following details:

  • Cost per 1K tokens.
  • Requests this month.

To review model activity and total cost for the current month, open Usage. Enable only the models that your team uses to keep model pickers short.
