Connecting an AI provider

Connect a supported AI provider and check that Polyframe can use it.

← Translation with AI Updated: 2026-08-12

Automatic translation needs at least one available AI provider. Polyframe supports Polyframe AI, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, DeepL and local Ollama.

Add your own provider

  1. Open Settings > AI providers.
  2. Click the add button and choose a provider.
  3. Check the model and endpoint.
  4. Paste the API key, then click Test key.
  5. Save the settings.

Placeholder showing AI provider setup Image placeholder: show the provider list, model, endpoint and key fields, plus Test key. 16:10 crop. Target alt text: “Connecting an AI provider in Polyframe Settings”.

Your provider key is stored locally on the computer. Ollama uses a local endpoint and does not need a key. Polyframe AI appears in the same list, but access comes from an active plan.

DeepL supports translation, but not Shorten, Match Length, Expand or Rephrase.

A successful key test does not set a spending limit. Set one separately in your provider account.

After connecting a provider, write a project brief.
