Create a Parallel AI account

Sign up for a Parallel AI account to get access to the platform and generate API keys.

1

Go to the Parallel Platform

Visit platform.parallel.ai in your browser.

2

Sign up or sign in

Create a new account or sign in to your existing one.

  • Click Sign up if you don’t have an account
  • You can sign up with Email, Google, or SSO

Generate an API Key

Create an API key from the Parallel Platform settings to authenticate API requests.

1

Navigate to API Keys

Once signed in, go to Settings in the left sidebar and select the API Keys tab.

2

Create a new API key

API keys are organized by Apps. Click + CREATE NEW API KEY under an existing app, or click + CREATE A NEW APP to create a new app first.

  • Give the key a descriptive name (e.g., StackOne Integration)
  • Click the eye icon next to the masked key to reveal the full value
  • Copy the API key immediately — it will remain accessible but masked by default
  • Store the key securely

Usage and Credits

Parallel AI uses a credit-based billing model. Some API actions consume credits per request.

  • Search, Extract, Chat, Task Runs, FindAll, and Entity Search consume credits
  • Monitors (list, create, retrieve, update, trigger, cancel, events) and Task Groups (create, retrieve) do not consume credits
  • Ensure your account has sufficient credits before using credit-consuming actions
  • For support, contact support@parallel.ai
