Janitor AI guide 2026: OpenAI proxy setup with Geek Hub
Janitor AI is one of the most searched character / roleplay chat fronts: custom bots, personality cards, and long threads. Many users plug in an OpenAI-compatible proxy instead of the bundled model. Geek Hub is that endpoint — one key, many makers, Mexico-ready billing.
What Janitor AI is
Janitor AI is a character-first chat UI: bot cards, conversation memory, and a creator community. Search demand for “janitor ai” is huge; OpenRouter ranks well on that keyword with its app guide.
For model control (quality, provider policies, cost), the usual path is an OpenAI-compatible proxy in Janitor settings: base URL + API key.
Why a gateway instead of OpenRouter only
OpenRouter is the most cited option in Janitor guides. Geek Hub matches the same API pattern with a LATAM angle: balance + CFDI, first-party catalog plus extended coverage. If you already know how to set a base URL in Janitor, switching is trivial.
- OpenAI-compatible base URL: https://api.geekhub.mx/v1
- Model ids as maker/slug (e.g. anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6)
- One key to try models without per-provider setup
- Costs visible in the Geek Hub dashboard
Who it is for
Character creators, roleplay communities, and anyone already using Janitor with a proxy. If you only use the platform’s hosted model and never touch API keys, you do not need Geek Hub.
