# Page Assist API: Add FreeTheAI to the Browser Extension

Page Assist adds FreeTheAI as an OpenAI compatible provider, so you can chat with web pages using FreeTheAI models.

## Settings

- Provider Name: `FreeTheAI`
- Base URL: `https://api.freetheai.org/v1`
- API Key: `your FreeTheAI key (ftai_..., 53 characters)`

## Steps

1. **Open the provider settings.** Open the Page Assist settings and choose OpenAI Compatible API.
2. **Add the provider.** Press Add Provider and fill in the values above. Press Save.
3. **Pick models.** In the Model List that opens, select the chat models you want, then choose one in the chat.

## Troubleshooting

**Does Page Assist work with FreeTheAI in Chrome and Firefox?**

Yes. FreeTheAI allows browser requests, so the extension can call it directly.
