# Migrate to Emby

> Move from your existing AI provider to Emby in minutes — no lock-in, no complexity, and fully compatible with your current tools.

## Migrate to Emby in Minutes

Switching from platforms like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OpenRouter, Together, or your own OpenAI-compatible backend?\
Emby makes migration simple — **no code rewrites**, **no lock-in**, and **instant compatibility** with your existing tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Kilo Code, Warp, Aider, and OpenWebUI.

Emby is fully **OpenAI & Anthropic compatible**, so most users only need to **swap their API key and base URL**.

***

## Quick Migration (Most Users)

If your current setup already uses an OpenAI-style interface, simply update:

```bash theme={null}
OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-emby-key>
OPENAI_API_BASE=https://api.emby.dev/v1
```

You're done.\
Your tools continue to work — but now with predictable pricing, EU hosting, and fast GPU-backed open-source models.
