Venice

Venice is an AI inference platform that provides API access to various language models.

Setup

1. Sign up or log in at https://venice.ai
2. Navigate to your API settings at https://venice.ai/settings/api
3. Create or retrieve your API key
4. In CodexBar, add your Venice API key via:
   • Preferences > Providers > Venice, OR
   • Set the environment variable VENICE_API_KEY or VENICE_KEY

Balance Query

CodexBar fetches your current Venice API balance using the /api/v1/billing/balance endpoint.

Balance Types

• DIEM: Venice's native credits (if epoch allocation is configured)
• USD: Dollar balance if available
• Consumption Currency: Indicates which currency is active for current billing

Display

CodexBar shows:

• Current remaining balance (DIEM or USD)
• Epoch allocation progress (if applicable)
• "Balance unavailable" if consumption is temporarily disabled

Troubleshooting

No balance showing?

• Verify your API key is correct
• Check network connectivity
• Ensure your Venice account has an active balance

API rate limiting?

• CodexBar caches balance data and updates every 30 seconds
• If you hit rate limits, wait a moment before refreshing
