2

You'll need to sign in with your Google account. If you don't have one, you can create it for free.

4

Copy Your API Key

Once generated, copy your API key. Keep it safe and don't share it publicly!

5

Use It in Our Tools

Paste your API key in the "Gemini API Key" field on any of our tools and start generating!

Important Notes

  • β€’The Gemini API is completely free to use with generous rate limits
  • β€’Keep your API key private and never share it publicly
  • β€’Your API key is stored locally in your browser and never sent to our servers
  • β€’You can regenerate your API key anytime from Google AI Studio

πŸ”’ Privacy Guarantee: We Don't Store Your API Key

How it works: Our tools run entirely in your browser. When you enter your API key:

  1. 1. The key stays in your browser's memory (React state)
  2. 2. It's sent directly from your browser to Google's Gemini API
  3. 3. Our server never sees or stores your API key

πŸ“‹ Technical Proof (Easy to Verify):

Step 1: Open the Source Code

Right-click anywhere on this website β†’ Click "View Page Source" or press Ctrl+U (Windows) / Cmd+Option+U (Mac)

Step 2: Search for API Key Handling

Press Ctrl+F (Windows) / Cmd+F (Mac) and search for: apiInput

Step 3: What You'll Find

You'll see the API key is only used to create a Gemini client. Look for these lines:

const genAI = new GoogleGenerativeAI(apiKey);
const model = genAI.getGenerativeModel(...);

Step 4: What You WON'T Find

❌ No database.save()
❌ No localStorage.setItem()
❌ No fetch('/save-key')
❌ No console.log(apiKey)

πŸ’‘ In Simple Terms:

The API key goes straight from your browser to Google's servers. Our code just passes it alongβ€”like a messenger who doesn't keep copies of the letters they deliver.

Open Source: This entire project is open source. You can verify the code yourself or even run it locally to be 100% sure your API key is safe.
