# Providers

> The models your fleet can call — the ones Komodor manages for you, and your own provider accounts registered alongside them.

Every agent run costs a model call, and Providers is where you see which models this workspace can
call, what each is costing, and whether it is working. The Komodor Agentic Operation Platform (KAOP)
ships with managed models so agents run without any setup, and you can register your own provider
accounts beside them. This page covers both, and how to add one.

## Two tiers, one table

| Tier                   | What it is                                                                               | What you can change                                        |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Managed by Komodor** | Models provisioned for your workspace, with their budget, spend, and remaining allowance | Read-only — budget and model allowances are set by Komodor |
| **Your providers**     | Your own provider account, registered with your own API key                              | Everything: rename, update, delete, re-verify              |

The page is one flat table of **models**, not a tab per tier. Each row is a model with its provider,
who manages it, its upstream model id, its spend, its usage, and its status — so the tier is just a
column you can sort and filter by. A registered account with no models yet still gets a row, so it
is visible rather than something you have to remember exists.

Above the table sits the workspace's gateway budget. That strip is the only place the managed tier's
account-level numbers appear.

## Bringing your own provider

Supported providers are OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Bedrock, Vertex AI, Gemini, Mistral, Groq,
DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Together AI, xAI, Cohere, Ollama, Baseten, Nebius Token Factory, and a hosted
vLLM endpoint.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Credential">
    Name the account and supply its API key. The key is stored so model discovery can authenticate
    with it later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Models">
    Register one or more upstream model ids against that credential. **Nothing is written until this
    step submits** — the credential is created, then each model against it, as one action.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify">
    Each new deployment is health-checked, and you can talk to it directly to confirm it answers.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Verify is a step of its own rather than a result banner, because after the write *"did this work"* is
a genuinely different question from *"what should I create"* — and a reader who has finished creating
still has to answer it.

To add models to an account you already registered, use **Add models** on that credential rather than
walking the wizard again.

<Note>
  Registering your own provider does not replace the managed tier — both stay callable, and an agent
  picks a model from either.
