Agent Settings are accessible from the agent chat panel. Click the settings icon inside the agent panel, or navigate to Account Settings -> Agent from the sidebar.
By default, AI Agent conversations use your account's AI Budget - a separate credit pool managed by Rank Prompt. If you'd prefer to use your own OpenAI account, you can connect your own API key.
Cost control - Pay OpenAI directly at your own usage rates, without purchasing AI Budget top-ups
High-volume usage - If you use the agent heavily, BYOK may be more cost-effective
Existing OpenAI account - If you already have an OpenAI subscription, reuse it here
Go to Agent Settings
Click BYOK / OpenAI API Key
Paste your OpenAI API key in the field provided
Click Save
Once saved, all new agent conversations will use your key. Your key is stored securely and encrypted at rest, and is used only for agent conversations in your account.
You can store up to 5 API keys per account and toggle which one is active.
With BYOK active, you can select which model the agent uses. Available options include:
gpt-5.4-mini
gpt-5.4
gpt-5.4-nano
gpt-4.1
o3
o4-mini
and others from the model catalog
Different models offer different trade-offs between speed, capability, and cost on your OpenAI account.
To stop using BYOK and switch back to platform AI Budget:
Go to Agent Settings -> BYOK / OpenAI API Key
Clear the key field
Click Save
Agent conversations will resume using your account's AI Budget.
If you don't use BYOK, agent conversations draw from your AI Budget pool. This is separate from your regular monthly credits - running the agent does not deduct from your visibility report credits.
Your current AI Budget balance is shown in Plans & Billing -> Top-Ups.
Go to Plans & Billing -> Top-Ups
Select an AI Budget top-up pack
Complete payment
AI Budget is added immediately to your account
Top-up packs are available in different amounts to suit your usage level.

No. When BYOK is active, your platform AI Budget is not consumed. Charges go directly to your OpenAI account.
Without BYOK, the agent uses a model selected by Rank Prompt for quality and performance. With BYOK, you can choose from multiple models in Agent Settings, including gpt-5.4-mini, gpt-5.4, o3, o4-mini, and others.
Yes. Your OpenAI API key is encrypted and stored securely. It is only used to make agent conversation requests on your behalf.
If your AI Budget is exhausted and you don't have BYOK configured, the agent will prompt you to top up before continuing. You can add AI Budget at any time from Plans & Billing.
