Connect OpenRouter
Create an OpenRouter API key, choose a model, and connect it in QueueWrite.
Updated
QueueWrite uses the writing, research, and optional image accounts you choose. You create an API key with the provider, enter it in QueueWrite, and that provider bills usage on their own pricing. A consumer subscription such as ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro does not necessarily include API usage or API credit. QueueWrite does not resell provider access.
OpenRouter routes requests to many underlying models through one API key. In QueueWrite you enter the OpenRouter key, then choose a writing model and use Test & Save.
- 1Create an OpenRouter API key
Sign in at OpenRouter and create an API key from their keys page. Copy it when shown.
- 2Add credit if required
OpenRouter usage is billed through your OpenRouter account. Free or congested models may be unavailable at times — choose another model if needed.
- 3Connect in QueueWrite
Open Settings → Providers → OpenRouter. Paste the key, choose a writing model, then Test & Save.
In the Direct macOS app, provider credentials are stored in macOS Keychain and used by QueueWrite to talk to the provider you selected. Never email or message your API keys to QueueWrite support.
