Set up NextChat in three steps

  1. Create an API key in the BigModel.io console. Give it a spend limit if the app runs unattended.
  2. Add an OpenAI-compatible provider and set its API address to https://bigmodel.io. NextChat appends /v1 itself.
  3. Copy a model ID from the model directory and add it to the app.
