Monet is an OAuth-style consent flow for AI provider credentials. You connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Google key once, and an integrating app receives a scoped, revocable bearer token rather than your raw secret, calling one OpenAI-compatible endpoint through Monet. The vendor states credentials are held AES-256-GCM encrypted and decrypted in-process only to proxy upstream calls, that the integrating app never touches the raw credential, and that you can revoke access yourself. Note what that means for the key journey: your key rests with Monet and every request is proxied through it, so this trades direct provider contact for revocability and per-app scoping. Closed source with no public repository, so none of it can be independently inspected. Free through beta.
Why this trust score (43/100)
Trust measures how the tool treats your API key and how much of that has been verified. It contains no popularity signal.
