External Providers (Passthrough)

Besides Qevron's own local models, you can reach external providers' models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Deepseek, …) through the same API. Qevron forwards these requests to the provider unchanged (passthrough); you only point base_url at Qevron and authenticate with your Qevron key.

How it works

  1. An admin configures a channel for the provider (provider API key + model list).
  2. You make a normal request using the provider's standard model id (e.g. gpt-4o, claude-sonnet-4-5, gemini-2.5-pro).
  3. The request shape is the provider's own — you just point the endpoint at Qevron.
python
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(api_key="$QEVRON_KEY", base_url="https://app.qevron.ai/v1")

# An external model — only base_url changed
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)

Which models can I reach?

For a live list of the models your key can reach:

bash
curl https://app.qevron.ai/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $QEVRON_KEY"

Each model's type/modality field tells you what it does (llm, embedding, tts, …).

Request shapes

External models use the schema of their own protocol:

TIP

You don't need to change your existing code — keep using the OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini SDK and just point base_url (and the api_key for Gemini) at Qevron.
