The DevExpress Blazor AI Chat component is compatible with major cloud AI providers and self-hosted language models. Its architecture also allows you to integrate custom AI providers or implement support for proprietary, in-house LLMs.

For a complete list of supported AI providers and detailed integration instructions, see the following help topic: DevExpress AI-powered Extensions for Blazor.

Note

DevExpress AI-powered extensions operate on a “bring your own key” (BYOK) model. We do not provide a proprietary REST API or bundled language models (LLMs/SLMs).

You can either deploy a self-hosted model or connect to a cloud AI provider and obtain necessary connection parameters (endpoint, API key, language model identifier, and so on). These parameters must be configured at application startup to register an AI client and enable extension functionality.
