A quick guide to connecting JanitorAI chats to NanoGPT’s API.

​
Setup Instructions

  1. Get your API key from nano-gpt.com/api
  2. In JanitorAI, open API Settings
  3. Select Proxy as the provider
  4. Click + Add under Proxy Configurations
  5. Configure the proxy with the following values: 
    Configuration Name: any label, e.g. NanoGPT
Model Name: Model ID, e.g. zai-org/glm-5.1
Proxy URL: https://nano-gpt.com/api/v1/chat/completions
API Key: <your NanoGPT API key>
  6. Click Apply, then make sure the NanoGPT proxy configuration is marked Active
JanitorAI now routes your conversations through NanoGPT.

​
Available Models

Model IDs can be found on the NanoGPT pricing page.

​
Include Reasoning

If you want JanitorAI to include reasoning output for reasoning-capable models, duplicate the configuration above and change the proxy URL to: 
https://nano-gpt.com/api/v1thinking/chat/completions

​
Troubleshooting

If JanitorAI shows a PROXY ERROR like this:
JanitorAI proxy error saying no response from bot
The most common causes are:
  • You used a paid model that is not included in your subscription and your NanoGPT account has no balance.
  • The proxy configuration is wrong. Re-check that Proxy URL is https://nano-gpt.com/api/v1/chat/completions or https://nano-gpt.com/api/v1thinking/chat/completions, and that your API key has no extra spaces.
