# OpenAI compatible APIs
Aider can connect to any LLM which is accessible via an OpenAI compatible API endpoint.
First, install aider:
{% include install.md %}
Then configure your API key and endpoint:
```
# Mac/Linux:
export OPENAI_API_BASE=<endpoint>
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<key>
# Windows:
setx OPENAI_API_BASE <endpoint>
setx OPENAI_API_KEY <key>
# ... restart shell after setx commands
```
Start working with aider and your OpenAI compatible API on your codebase:
```bash
# Change directory into your codebase
cd /to/your/project
# Prefix the model name with openai/
aider --model openai/<model-name>
```
See the [model warnings](warnings.html)
section for information on warnings which will occur
when working with models that aider is not familiar with.
