# Providers and Models

You can bring your own large language model \(LLM\) provider and API to use with Now Assist.

Bringing your own large language model enables:

-   Data Privacy & Compliance: Keep sensitive data within your own environment and meet regulatory requirements.
-   Customization: Fine-tune models for domain-specific needs and control behavior.
-   Integration Flexibility: Connect easily with existing infrastructure and preferred cloud providers.
-   Cost Control: Use existing contracts and optimize resource usage to avoid extra charges.
-   Strategic Autonomy: Maintain vendor neutrality and avoid lock-in for future-proofing.
