What is this AI Chat?

This is a free ChatGPT-style assistant powered by Google's Gemini AI. You use your own free Gemini API key (Google gives 1,500 requests per day at no cost). Because your key talks directly to Google from your browser, WorkIQ never sees your messages — full privacy.

1

Get a free Gemini API key

Visit aistudio.google.com/apikey, sign in with any Google account, click "Create API key." Takes 30 seconds. No credit card required.

2

Paste it once

Paste the key into this page once. It saves in your browser's localStorage so you don't need to paste it again. Click "Change API key" anytime to update.

3

Start chatting

Type any question and press Enter. Ask for code, writing help, explanations, translations, summaries, brainstorming — anything ChatGPT can do.

Example prompts to try

Writing

"Rewrite this email to sound more friendly." — paste your draft.
"Give me 10 catchy subject lines for a newsletter about productivity tools."

Coding

"Explain what this code does." — paste your code.
"Write a Python script that downloads images from a URL list."

Brainstorming

"Give me 20 startup ideas in the productivity space for solo founders."

"Translate this to formal Spanish: I would like to schedule a meeting next Tuesday."

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really free?

Yes. Google's Gemini API has a generous free tier (1,500 requests/day) that requires no credit card. WorkIQ doesn't charge for the chat interface.

Why do I need my own API key?

If WorkIQ provided one key for everyone, it would be drained instantly by bots and abuse. Using your own key means your conversations are private (we never see them) and you have your own dedicated quota.

Where is my API key stored?

Only in your browser's localStorage on this device. It's never sent to WorkIQ. It only goes from your browser straight to Google's API.

Is my chat history saved?

Conversations stay in this tab while you use them. They're not saved permanently. Click "Clear chat" anytime to start fresh.

How does this compare to ChatGPT?

Gemini 2.0 Flash is comparable to GPT-4o for most general tasks and is significantly faster. Gemini 1.5 Pro is closer to GPT-4 for complex reasoning. For most everyday questions, Flash is more than enough.

What if I hit the rate limit?

The free tier is 1,500 requests per day. If you hit it, the API will return an error. Wait until the next day or upgrade to the paid tier in Google AI Studio.

Can WorkIQ read my conversations?

No. Messages go directly from your browser to Google's Gemini API. WorkIQ has no server in between. Your key, your conversations.
