VNDLY + Moonshot Kimi
Connect Moonshot Kimi models with your own API key for AI features in VNDLY.
Moonshot AI's Kimi models are known for very long context windows and strong multilingual performance. That combination is handy when you want AI to reason over a big product catalog or a long stretch of sales history without losing the thread, or when your team works across more than one language.
VNDLY supports Kimi through BYOK. Add your Moonshot API key in Settings > AI Providers, choose a Kimi model, and VNDLY sends requests from your own account. You pay Moonshot directly with no surcharge, and VNDLY stores only usage metadata, never your prompt content.
With Kimi connected, you get VNDLY's AI features: per-product insight reports, the demand planning assistant, and the sales assistant on your overview - all running on the model and budget you choose.
