# Manage Your Large Language Models (LLMs)

> Learn about the integration of LLMs in Genow.

> [!NOTE]
>
> We use LLMs to generate answers. **We are large language model agnostic. Therefore we can add all existing large language models that are reachable via a public API.** You can also add self-hosted models.

> As standard, we provide you with Google's Gemini models, which offer high performance at an affordable price. We have a processing contract with Google to be GDPR compliant (data will not be used to train new models, etc.). We make sure all models are hosted in Europe, preferably Germany as well. For an increased resilience we recommend using multiple models from different providers.

Costs for LLM depend on the used model.

The used models can easily be changed via our **model controller**. Soon you will be also able to change and manage the used LLMs in Administration. We generally need:

* API key
* Authentication key
* Endpoint

> [!WARNING]
>
> Make sure you conclude a processing contract, that will ensure that your company data will not be used for training. When choosing another model, please also check where the model is hosted.

## Model Availability and Deprecations

Providers retire models over time. We add new models as they become available and inform you before an existing model is switched off.

| Model | Status |
| - | - |
| Gemini 3.7 Flash | Available |
| Gemini 3.6 Flash | Available |
| Gemini 2.5 Pro | Removed on 21 September 2026 |

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Gemini 2.5 Pro will be removed on 21 September 2026.** Google is deactivating this model in October 2026, and availability usually drops beforehand. Inform your Agent admins and users so they can switch to a newer model in time.

***

## Response Modes

In addition to the model itself, users select a response mode - <kbd>Fast</kbd>, <kbd>Balanced</kbd> or <kbd>Precise</kbd> - directly in the input field. <kbd>Fast</kbd> is the default and the right choice for most tasks. More precise modes spend more effort on an answer and therefore take longer.

### Azure Available?

* [If you want to use the ChatGPT-models, a processing contract with OpenAI is not necessary, as long as you have one with Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-authenticate-authorize-azure-openai)
* Azure Portal -> search for Azure OpenAI
* In your Azure OpenAI interface: Manage Keys -> Read endpoint & keys and make them available to us
* You can make your network settings under Network. Even if the endpoint is public, it is secured by the authentication key. However, it is always advisable to restrict access. Please note that with Notes
* Create Azure OpenAI, API Key costs are charged in Microsoft Azure. Billing per token. Please provide us with the required information afterwards.
