WhisperReporter Ascent integrates with several AI services, including OpenAI (used by ChatGPT, Microsoft's CoPilot, etc), Google's Gemini, X's Grok, and Anthropic's Claude.
Whisper provides complimentary keys and basic models for each of the four services to get you started. They may not always be available or don't return the responses in the details desired, so it is highly recommended that you sign up for the service(s) you like and obtain a personal API key(s), sometimes referred to as a Secret Key. Each service and model has their own price points, but all are very inexpensive, priced at per million tokens (words) sent and received, usually less than $5.00 per one million tokens. Some services provide free usage with a limited number of queries per day, some provide a free introductory period, and others require you to prepay the pay-as-you-go plan. Links are provided in the Personal AI Services tab to get you started.
When you obtain a personal API key, enter it in the appropriate text box and also check it as the default. You also can subscribe to multiple services, the the selected default will be the one initially selected for AI Text and AI Photo queries. If other Keys are entered, you will have the opportunity to select a specific service when doing a query. You will also need to enter the Model you wish to use. The site will provide one or more Models to choose from, each having their own search algorithms and pricing. The Complimentary API Services tab shows some of the basic low cost models we use for each service.

Use the link to the far right of each service to get you started on obtaining an API Key and model for that service. At the time of this writing, Google's Gemini provides a free usage period.
Once you have successfully entered an API Key, you can use the AI Text Query and AI Image Query features.
