GirlLab Chat quick start ​

Build conversations with custom personas through the Chat API. Replies are returned synchronously.

1. Create an API Key ​

Sign in to the console and open API Keys. Keep the key on your server; never include it in public client code. See Authentication.

2. Send a message ​

bash
curl -X POST https://api.girllab.io/v1/chat/messages \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-your-key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"message":"Hello!","persona":"You are a helpful assistant."}'

The response contains conversation_id, config, and an assistant message. Pass conversation_id in subsequent requests to continue the conversation.

3. Explore Chat ​

  • Chat: messages, conversation settings, voice input, and reading replies aloud.
  • Billing: credits are charged per model reply.
  • Errors: authentication, balance, and upstream errors.

You can also try Playground → Chat in the console. The interactive API reference is available at API docs.
