Connecting to Groq

Last updated: August 10, 2026

Eviory OS supports connecting directly to Groq, providing near-instantaneous AI responses using their specialized LPU technology for models like Llama 3 and Mixtral.

Because Eviory OS uses a Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK) model, your API requests go directly from your browser to Groq.

1. Getting your Groq API Key

  1. Go to the GroqCloud Console and sign in.
  2. Navigate to the API Keys section from the sidebar.
  3. Click Create API Key. Give it a recognizable name (e.g., Eviory OS).
  4. Copy the generated API Key. (It usually starts with gsk_).

2. Configuring Eviory OS Settings

Once you have your API key, you can plug it into Eviory OS.

  1. Open Settings inside Eviory OS.
  2. Navigate to the AI Integrations tab.
  3. Scroll down to the Custom Local AI / Proxy section.
  4. Fill in the fields exactly as follows:
  • Base URL: https://api.groq.com/openai/v1 (Note: The /openai/v1 suffix is required!)
  • API Key: Paste your Groq key here
  • Model ID: Enter the specific Groq model (e.g., llama3-70b-8192 or mixtral-8x7b-32768).
  1. Click Save Changes.

Eviory OS will now generate text blazingly fast using Groq!
