OpenAI + Blueprint Nexus
Bring your own OpenAI key — full power, zero mark-up
Most AI workspaces charge you a subscription premium to access models you could call yourself. Blueprint Nexus takes the opposite approach: BYOK (Bring Your Own Key). Plug in your OpenAI key and run GPT-class reasoning directly against your knowledge graph at raw API cost — zero mark-up, full privacy control, and your usage scales with your own account. Combined with Nexus's built-in Flash & Pro engines, you choose the economics per task.
What You Can Do With OpenAI in Nexus
BYOK configuration in the vault
Store your OpenAI key in Nexus's encrypted vault. It never leaves your workspace context and is never billed through Nexus.
Graph-grounded generation
Your OpenAI model of choice reads your live knowledge graph — specs, decisions, tasks — so output is grounded, not hallucinated.
Model mixing per task
Use built-in Flash engines for quick edits, your OpenAI key for heavy long-form reasoning. Switch per prompt.

Who It's For
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Nexus mark up my OpenAI usage?
No. BYOK means your key, your account, your billing — Nexus charges nothing on top.
Can I use both built-in AI and my own key?
Yes. Nexus includes built-in Flash & Pro reasoning engines, and BYOK adds your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, or Ollama models.
How is my key stored?
In the encrypted BYOK vault, scoped to your workspace, never exposed to other tenants.
