Using OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified API gateway that gives you access to hundreds of AI models (Google Gemini, Meta Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, and more) through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Since Notifuse’s OpenAI integration uses the standard OpenAI SDK, you can point it to OpenRouter by setting the Host field:
| Field | Description | Value |
|---|
| API Key | Your OpenRouter API key | sk-or-v1-... |
| Model | Any model available on OpenRouter | google/gemini-2.5-pro |
| Host | OpenRouter API base URL | https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 |
The AI agent generates structured MJML email templates and full blog posts with HTML formatting. Only models with strong coding capabilities (e.g. GPT-4.1, Claude Sonnet, Gemini Pro) are smart enough to produce correct output. Smaller or weaker models may generate broken templates or malformed content.
Prerequisites
Before configuring OpenAI:
- OpenAI Account: Create an account at platform.openai.com
- API Key: Generate an API key from the OpenAI dashboard
- Credits: Ensure your account has sufficient API credits
Usage Notes
API calls to GPT models count toward your OpenAI account usage. Monitor your usage in the OpenAI dashboard to manage costs.
For most use cases, GPT-4.1 mini offers the best balance of capability and cost. Use GPT-4.1 for complex creative tasks and GPT-4.1 nano for simple, high-volume operations.
