Your model.
Your rules.
Connect your own OpenAI-compatible models to anymize – self-hosted or with the provider of your choice. With encrypted keys, governance permissions and the usual anonymization in front.

Your model. In your picker.
Running your own model — on-premise or with an EU host? Enter the OpenAI-compatible endpoint in the Governance Center, the key is stored encrypted, and after the connection test the model is available to your team in chat.

What is Bring Your Own Model?
Your own endpoints, cleanly connected.
Some teams run their own models – self-hosted in their own data center, as a dedicated cloud deployment, or with an EU provider under a special contract. With Bring Your Own Model you connect any OpenAI-compatible model directly to anymize: an endpoint URL and an API key are all it takes.
Endpoint + key
Enter the OpenAI-compatible base URL, store the API key – done. The key is stored AES-256-GCM encrypted.
Test the connection
One click verifies the connection before the model goes live – no surprises in chat.
Your own icon
Give your model a face: pick an icon from the library or upload your own image.
In the model picker
Your model appears in its own Your models section – right at the top of the model picker.
Why it fits anymize
Full freedom on the model.
Full control on governance.
Connecting your own model must not mean losing control. At anymize, the complete governance automatically applies to your models too:
Anonymization before every model
The upstream anonymization runs before every model – including yours. Sensitive data never reaches the endpoint in plain text, wherever it is hosted.
Group permissions apply automatically
Your own models are subject to the same model permissions as all others: admins decide per group or user who may use them.
Governable team-wide
Admins can block personal own models team-wide – as an enforceable policy in the Governance Center.
Secure in the details
API keys are stored AES-256-GCM encrypted and never returned to the browser. Ownership is verified before every use – nobody can use another team's model (or key).
How it works
Connected in three steps.
Open the Governance Center
Create a new model under Your models – for your team or just for you.
Enter the endpoint & test
Store the OpenAI-compatible URL + API key, test the connection, optionally pick an icon.
Select it in chat
Your model is ready in the picker under Your models – with anonymization in front, as always.
