# Setting up an AI Connector

{% hint style="info" %}
TrendSeeker AI supports OpenAI for AI integration. While it is possible to integrate other AI providers, we recommend OpenAI for the best experience. If you need help integrating a different AI provider, contact us for help at [yansalabs.com/support](https://www.yansalabs.com/support).
