Quick Start ⚡️ One line of code

1. Get your write-only API key by signing up here.

2. Update only the baseURL in your code:

   import OpenAI from "openai";
   
   const openai = new OpenAI({
     apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
     baseURL: `https://oai.helicone.ai/v1/${process.env.HELICONE_API_KEY}`,
   });

3. 🎉 You're all set! View your logs at Helicone.

This quick start uses Helicone Cloud with OpenAI. For other providers or self-hosted options, see below.

Get Started For Free

Helicone Cloud (Recommended)

The fastest and most reliable way to get started with Helicone. Get started for free at Helicone US or Helicone EU. Your first 100k requests are free every month, after which you'll pay based on usage. Try our demo to see Helicone in action!
