Understand your Voyager account, connect an agent, and choose which account powers your chat.
Your Voyager account signs you into the app; your agent account supplies the AI that works with you in chat.Chat uses your own Claude or ChatGPT (signed in with a subscription or an API key), Voyager models on a Voyager plan, or an Anthropic or OpenAI API key you add in Voyager.For example, you can sign in to Voyager, use your Claude subscription for chat, and generate images with your own FAL key. Each connection has its own purpose and billing.
A paid Voyager plan is optional. A free Voyager account plus your own Claude or ChatGPT is enough to finish setup and chat. Your own media keys generate media without a plan.
Open Settings → Accounts. The Voyager card shows your sign-in, workspace, and available billing information. Generation providers controls media generation. The agent accounts below it control chat.
Use Accounts to check your Voyager connection and find your generation providers.
If your Voyager account belongs to several workspaces, choose the workspace you intend to use. Check the workspace name before buying credits or starting paid work.For a new connection, follow Connect Claude, Connect ChatGPT, or Voyager models and media.To add another ChatGPT account, or to use a Codex install you already have, click the + button (Add provider) at the top of the agent accounts. In the Add provider instance dialog, keep the Codex driver selected and choose Continue with ChatGPT or Use my Codex CLI. A ChatGPT account connected through Voyager has its own sign-in.

Set the default for new chats in Settings → General → Conversations → Model; individual projects can override it.When you switch to a different provider in an existing chat, the picker says Continues in a new thread.
