Connect a Groq key to Wordiv

Wordiv needs at least one API key to work. Groq is the free, fast one, and it is enough to get started — it runs both the transcription and the text processing. This guide covers the whole thing, from the button in Settings to picking the engine.

Anything marked in pink in the screenshots is what you click or fill in. When a screenshot has more than one marker, the numbers show the order.

    A window opens showing your API key for ten seconds, so you can check that you copied the right one. After 10 seconds it closes, and the key is never shown again.

    Under AI engines you can pick Groq both for Transcription (speech → text) and for Text AI (cleanup / translation / agent prompt) — or choose one of the other models.

That’s it — Wordiv is ready

From now on Wordiv uses this key to transcribe your speech and process your text. The key is stored on your own computer.

You can come back to this screen any time from Settings in the Wordiv menu.

If you also want speaker separation and image analysis, you need to add a Gemini API key as well — it is also the strongest one for Hebrew.

Don’t forget to click Save at the bottom of the Settings window. Without it the key is not stored.
