Q: A Couple (more) Questions & a problem...
1) When using BYOK, is it still necessary to have remio credits for Q&A interaction? I was under the impression that BYOK would eliminate the need for credits. I have entered API keys for Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, and x/AI.
2) BYOK is just not working. When I try to chat using *any* of my own API keys that little nucleoid dingus just spins and says: "Analyzing the problem..." and no output. Finally, in like 15-20 it will output "Error: Error: uv not available and auto-install failed; cannot set up Python environment"
3) I noticed that the default remio LLM is Claude. But, when I added my Anthropic API key there's no option for Haiku. Its nice that you have the newest versions of the other two, but... for most tasks Haiku is great and doesn't burn tokens nearly as much as the Sonnet-4.6 and Opus-4.7. Is it possible to add?

May 24, 2026A: Hi! Let me address each one:
1. BYOK & credits— Confirmed: once you're using BYOK, Remio credits are not consumed. Your API key usage goes directly to your provider.
2. BYOK not working — The Python environment error usually appears when using aApps. Could you clarify are you seeing this error during a normal Q&A chat, or when trying to run an aApp? Either way, please reach out to us directly at [email protected] and we'll help you diagnose it.
3.Claude Haiku — Great suggestion, we'll add Haiku as an option. Thanks for the feedback! 🙏
