Connect ToolRouter to Claude, ChatGPT, Manus, OpenClaw, and CLI

Claude, ChatGPT, Manus, Codex, OpenClaw, and other MCP or CLI setups are self-serve. Connect first, auto-provision on first use, then claim the account if you want credits, billing, or named keys.

1Get started

Most users do not need an API key to get started. Connector, MCP, and CLI setups auto-provision a free ToolRouter account on first use, so setup stays self-serve and crawlable.

Want credits, billing, or a named key?
Connect first, then claim the account from your agent or sign in to manage the dashboard.

Building a product with AI?

If you have an existing agent in your product — a customer service bot, internal assistant, SaaS copilot, or workflow automation — you can give it on-demand access to 208+ tools through one integration. Image generation, video production, web search, SEO, company data, security scanning, and more — no per-tool setup.

Bring Your Own Keys

Pass your own provider API keys via headers. They're used for that request only and never stored server-side.

X-Provider-Key-OpenAI: sk-proj-xxx
X-Provider-Key-Anthropic: sk-ant-xxx

Per-request keys override server defaults. Add them alongside your Authorization header.
