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  • The model ID is outdated, misspelled, or unavailable. A 404 response usually means you should copy the model’s current ID from the NanoGPT pricing page.
  • 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.
