# Using Goose for Free
|
|
|
|
:::info Supported Environments
|
|
Goose currently works only on **macOS** and **Linux** systems, and supports both **ARM** and **x86** architectures. If you'd like to request support for additional operating systems, please [open an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/block/goose/issues/new?template=Blank+issue).

|
|
|
Goose is a free and open source developer AI agent that you can start using right away, but not all supported [LLM Providers][providers] provide a free tier.
|
|
|
|
Below, we outline a couple of free options and how to get started with them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Google Gemini
|
|
Google Gemini provides free access to its AI capabilities with some limitations. To start using the Gemini API with Goose, you need an API Key from [Google AI studio](https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey).
|
|
|
|
To set up Google Gemini with Goose, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
<Tabs groupId="interface">
|
|
<TabItem value="cli" label="Goose CLI" default>
|
|
1. Run:
|
|
```sh
|
|
goose configure
|
|
```
|
|
2. Select `Configure Providers` from the menu.
|
|
3. Follow the prompts to choose `Google Gemini` as the provider and enter your API key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
<TabItem value="ui" label="Goose Desktop">
|
|
**To update your LLM provider and API key:**
|
|
|
|
1. Click on the three dots in the top-right corner.
|
|
2. Select `Provider Settings` from the menu.
|
|
2. Choose `Google Gemini` as provider from the list.
|
|
3. Click Edit, enter your API key, and click `Set as Active`.
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
</Tabs>
|
|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
|
|
These free options are a great way to get started with Goose and explore its capabilities. However, if you need more advanced features or higher usage limits, you can upgrade to a paid plan with your LLM provider.
