AutoGPT is a pioneering autonomous-agent platform for building, deploying, and running continuous AI agents that automate multi-step workflows. It offers a low-code/visual block-based agent builder and a full server platform. When self-hosted (single Docker Compose command), users bring their own model API keys; the platform's LLM blocks support OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Ollama (local), and Open Router (which fronts Gemini, Mistral, Cohere, DeepSeek, Perplexity, etc.), plus AIML API, Llama API, and Vercel v0, each configured via user-supplied api_key credentials. A managed hosted cloud tier also exists where model usage is covered by a paid plan (no BYOK there).
How your API key is handled
You self-host the app, so your API key lives in your own deployment. Requests are sent directly to the AI provider. Because it can be self-hosted, your key never has to touch a third-party backend.
Setup
Deploy it (Docker/compose), add your provider API key in the admin or environment config, then select models.
