Replace
https://YOUR-VALKYRIE-DASHBOARD below with your organization’s Valkyrie
dashboard URL, and https://valkyrie-back.azumo.com with your API base URL if it
differs. Ask your administrator if you’re unsure which hosts to use.1. Create an account and fund your wallet
- Sign in to the Valkyrie dashboard.
- Open Quota and check (or top up) your balance. Valkyrie is prepaid and billed per use, your balance is what your deployments and jobs draw against. See Quota & billing.
2. Create an API key
Machine access uses an API key sent in theX-API-Key header.
- Open API Keys from the sidebar, then the Deployment Keys tab.
- Create a key and copy it, you won’t be able to see it again.
3. Deploy a model
You can deploy any Hugging Face model directly, or deploy a model you’ve fine-tuned on Valkyrie.- Open Models → Deploy.
- Choose a base model (for example, a Qwen chat model) or one of your fine-tuned models.
- Launch the deployment. Valkyrie provisions a GPU on demand, starts the serving engine (vLLM or Ollama), and health-checks it before marking it ready.
4. Call your model
Valkyrie speaks the OpenAI Chat Completions API. Point any OpenAI client at your deployment’s base URL and use your API key.Next steps
