What is Open WebUI?
Open WebUI is a popular self-hosted, ChatGPT-style interface you run for yourself or a team. It connects to any OpenAI-compatible API — add Tokonomix as an OpenAI connection and every model in the catalogue appears in the model picker.
- A polished multi-user chat UI you host with Docker.
- Adds OpenAI-compatible APIs as connections (Admin → Settings → Connections).
- Or configure them by environment variable at startup.
- Open source and extensible (functions, pipelines, RAG).
Why add Tokonomix to Open WebUI?
- Expose
tokonomix-consensusand 130+ direct models in the picker for your whole team. - Centralise billing on one key with per-call spend caps.
- Route by
hosting_region/origin_countryacross the instance. - Add or remove models by editing one connection — no redeploy.
Connect Tokonomix to Open WebUI
Add an OpenAI connection in the UI (Admin → Settings → Connections → OpenAI API), or set the environment variables at startup.

# API Base URL : https://tokonomix.ai/api/v1
# API Key : tok_live_your-keyVerify it works
- Save the connection (or restart with the env vars).

tokonomix-consensus— in the model selector and send a message. - Confirm the call and token usage in your Tokonomix dashboard.
