    ### GPT-powered scripting ships with every Faceless plan
    
    Every plan includes GPT-4o for script generation through our shared API integration. No separate OpenAI account, no separate billing, no separate key. The default works for most users.
    
2.  2
    
    ### Optional: bring your own OpenAI key for custom rate limits
    
    Paste your OpenAI API key in Settings → Integrations to use your own quota. Useful if you've hit Faceless's monthly quota, want to use a fine-tuned model, or have specific rate-limit requirements.
    
    ```bash
    OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-*****
    ```

    ### Choose model per project
    
    GPT-4o is the default. GPT-4o-mini is cheaper and faster for short videos under 60 seconds. Custom fine-tunes work for brand-voice consistency, we route your key to OpenAI's API for those calls.

## What you can do with OpenAI + Faceless

-   01
    
    ### Brand-voice consistency through fine-tuned models
    
    Fine-tune a model on your existing scripts and content. Faceless uses it for new generation, so every video sounds like your brand even when generated from prompts.

    ### Specialized prompts for niche content
    
    Legal, medical, technical content benefits from custom prompts. Bring expert prompts and Faceless uses them for the script-generation step.

    ### BYOK rate-limit relief at high volume
    
    Hit a monthly cap on Faceless's shared quota? Plug in your own OpenAI key and keep generating without an upgrade.
