Using Non-OpenAI Models in NextChat

NextChat natively supports the OpenAI API format. To use models from other providers (such as Claude or Gemini) through AI Gateway, you must add them as custom models using an OpenAI-compatible configuration.

In Settings > Custom Models, add a model using the following format:

+<model_name>@OpenAI

Example

+claude-3-opus-20240229@OpenAI

Explanation

• <model_name> The actual model name supported by AI Gateway.

• @OpenAI Indicates that NextChat should call this model using the OpenAI-compatible API format, even if the underlying model is provided by a different vendor.

AI Gateway translates the OpenAI-compatible request into the appropriate provider-specific API call.

This approach allows NextChat to use multiple AI providers through a single OpenAI-compatible interface exposed by AI Gateway.
