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.
Click the Get a key button.
Sign in to Groq — preferably with your Google account.
Make sure API Keys is selected in the menu at the top, then click Create API Key.
Give the API key a name in English — wordiv, for example. Leave Expiration on No expiration and click Submit.
In the window that opens, click Copy to copy the API key you were given. Then click Done.
If you ever want to rename the key, click the pencil icon. To delete it, click the bin icon.
Go back to the Settings window and paste the Groq API key into the matching field.
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.
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.
