Steps

Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.

  1. Sign in or create a Together AI account

    Sign in to Together AI. If you have no account yet, you create it yourself; verapli does not create accounts.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You sign in

    Where: https://api.together.ai/

  2. Buy the minimum credits

    Buy at least $15 of credits (later top-ups minimum $5). You need a positive balance to call the API.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You add payment details
    • After: Sign in or create a Together AI account
    If something goes wrong (1)
    • API access suspended: Your balance reached zero; add credits. [2]

  3. Create an API key

    On your project's API keys page create a key and save it at once; new keys are shown only once.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Sign in or create a Together AI account

    verapli captures TOGETHER_API_KEY here by plain code: encrypted in your browser, never shown to AI.
