Connecting Cherry Studio to PPIO LLM API

​Tutorial Overview

Cherry Studio is a multi-model desktop client that currently supports installation packages for Windows, Linux, and macOS. It aggregates mainstream LLM models and provides multi-scenario assistance. Users can improve their work efficiency through intelligent session management, open-source customization, and multi-themed interfaces.

Cherry Studio is now deeply integrated with the PPIO high-performance API channel—ensuring high-speed responses for DeepSeek-R1/V3 and 99.9% service availability through enterprise-grade computing power, bringing you a fast and smooth experience.

The tutorial below provides a complete integration plan (including API key configuration), allowing you to enable the advanced mode of "Cherry Studio Intelligent Scheduling + PPIO High-Performance API" in just 3 minutes.

​1. Open CherryStudio and add "PPIO" as a model provider

First, go to the official website to download Cherry Studio: https://cherry-ai.com/download (If you can't access it, you can use the Quark Web Drive link below to download the version you need: https://pan.quark.cn/s/c8533a1ec63e#/list/share

(1) First, click on Settings in the bottom left corner, set the custom provider name to: PPIO, and click "OK"

(2) Go to PPIO Compute Cloud API Key Management, click on your [User Avatar] — [API Key Management] to enter the console

Click the [+ Create] button to create a new API key. Give it a custom name. The generated key is only displayed at the time of creation. Be sure to copy and save it to a document to avoid affecting future use.

(3) In CherryStudio, enter the API key. Click Settings, select [PPIO Cloud], enter the API key generated on the official website, and finally click [Check].

(4) Select the model: For example, deepseek/deepseek-r1/community. If you need to switch to another model, you can do so directly.

​2. Model Usage Configuration

(1) Click [Check]. Once it shows "Connection successful," you can start using it normally.

(2) Finally, click on [@] and select the DeepSeek R1 model you just added under the PPIO provider to start chatting successfully~
