Optional: use your own AI key.

The AI is included in every BIZLINKED plan, within a monthly allowance: you do not need a key. For heavy use, you can plug in your own — Claude or ChatGPT, your choice. The monthly allowance then no longer applies and you pay the AI directly, at cost. Here is how to create it and add credit.

1
Create your developer account

Go to platform.claude.com and sign up with your email or Google. It is separate from claude.ai: a Claude Pro or Max plan does not include an API key.

2
Add credit

Open Settings → Billing and click Buy credits. $10 is plenty to start: one personalised message costs less than one cent. Credit is prepaid and valid for a year. Auto-reload is optional — leave it off to stay in full control.

3
Create your API key

Open Settings → API keys and click Create key. Name it “BIZLINKED”, then copy it right away: it starts with sk-ant- and is shown only once.

4
Paste it in BIZLINKED

In your BIZLINKED workspace, open Setup → step 1, paste the key and click Save and test. When the line “API key valid, credit available” turns green, you are ready.

5
Set your budget (recommended)

Open Settings → Limits and set a monthly spend limit. You decide what the AI can cost — never BIZLINKED.
