What do I use as the base URL?

Your Azure resource's endpoint with the /openai/v1 path — for example https://mycompany.openai.azure.com/openai/v1. You select deployments (the names your admin created), not raw model names.

Is my Azure OpenAI API key safe in Pluely?

Yes. Keys are encrypted and stored locally on your device — they never leave your computer except in requests to Azure OpenAI itself. Pluely's servers never see them.

Does Pluely charge for using Azure OpenAI?

No. Custom providers are unmetered and fully covered by the free plan — you pay only Azure OpenAI for your own usage.

Which Azure OpenAI models can I use?

Any model the endpoint serves — for example gpt-5.2, gpt-4o, o4-mini. You choose which ones appear in the overlay's picker.

Can I use Azure OpenAI alongside Pluely's bundled models?

Yes. On Pro plans the picker shows your custom providers next to the 200+ bundled models; on the free plan your own providers and CLIs power everything.

Azure OpenAI, in an invisible overlay.

If your organization runs OpenAI models through Azure, point Pluely at your deployment and keep every request inside your company's compliance boundary — same GPT models, corporate rules satisfied.

Why Azure OpenAI?

GPT models under your company's Azure tenancy.

Compliance without compromise

Data residency, private networking, your company's DPA — Azure OpenAI keeps the lawyers happy while Pluely keeps you answered. IT approves the endpoint; you get the overlay.

Your existing Azure spend

Usage lands on the Azure bill your company already pays, under quotas your admins already manage — often the easiest procurement path to AI at work.

Same models, familiar behavior

These are OpenAI's models, unchanged. Everything true of GPT on the public API is true here — just served from your tenant.

Use your Azure resource's endpoint as the base URL — deployments, not raw model names, are what you select.

Connect Azure OpenAI in three steps

Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint works the same way.

Get your Azure OpenAI API key

Create a key at portal.azure.com. It stays on your device — Pluely encrypts it locally and never sends it anywhere except Azure OpenAI itself.

Add it as a custom provider

Open Pluely's dashboard → AI Providers → Add Custom Provider. Paste the base URL (https://YOUR-RESOURCE.openai.azure.com/openai/v1) and your key, and pick the models you want available.

Pick it and ask

Your Azure OpenAI models now appear in the overlay's model picker. Select one and every Ask, screenshot, and meeting answer runs on your key — unmetered by Pluely.

Everything Pluely does, on Azure OpenAI

Connecting a provider doesn't limit the product — every mode routes through it.

Ask Azure OpenAI about your screen

Capture the full screen, drag-select just the error or the clause that matters, attach PDFs and documents with built-in OCR, or turn on Use image so every message carries a fresh screenshot. Azure OpenAI answers with the actual context in front of you.

Azure OpenAI answers your meetings live

Listen mode transcribes your mic and system audio in real time with speaker labels, and Azure OpenAI drafts the suggested answer before the question finishes — automatically on every question, after each pause, or only when you tap Suggest.

Summaries, transforms, and notes

One tap turns any answer, transcript, or document into a summary, key points with action items, a translation, or a longer draft — and meeting notes build themselves as you go. All of it runs on Azure OpenAI.
