Relay.app has three kinds of AI actions:
Built-in actions — Common tasks like extraction, summarization, translation, and transcription.
Custom prompts — Flexible steps that can take any input and produce a desired structured output.
Mini-agents — Semi-autonomous AI agents that can be empowered to perform certain tasks.

There are two main ways to connect a model to an AI step in Relay.app.
Recommended: Use Relay.app's AI credits: You can use various OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic models via the AI credits that come with your plan in Relay.app. This means that you don't need to connect an account with an underlying model provider, connect any API keys, or purchase credits through that model provider. Simply select one of the AI credit model options and start using AI in your workflows.
Advanced: Use direct connection: If you already have an account with OpenAI, Anthropic, or another model provider, and you've already purchased credits there, you can choose to call models directly via those accounts by selecting one of the Connected Models in the dialog below. Note that OpenAI platform credits are separate from ChatGPT Plus subscriptions. Read more about purchasing credits here.
While AI is getting better by the day, it can still be unpredictable. In most cases, if you have a step that is resulting in an error or not producing the output you want, you'll need to adapt your prompt. We'll be adding prompt tips here in the future, but for now you can email support@relay.app for assistance.
