Early access

To get a HeyAlbert API key, request early access; after we confirm your use case we email you a personal key for one named user.

Last updated October 25, 2026

How to get access

  1. Request early access and tell us which assistant or agent you use.
  2. We confirm your use case, as we do for every HeyAlbert account.
  3. We issue a personal API key for one named user and send it to you by email. Keys start with hak_.
  4. Add the key to Claude, ChatGPT or your agent. See Set up the MCP server.

Keeping your key safe

  • One key per named user. Keys are never shared, and a shared key may be revoked.
  • Treat the key like a password. Do not paste it into chats, documents or email threads.
  • When you connect through the Claude or ChatGPT sign-in page, the assistant stores a HeyAlbert token, not your key.
  • If a key is lost or leaked, email albert@heyalbert.site. We revoke it and issue a new one. A revoked key stops working within about a minute, including tokens issued from it.

Questions

How do I get a HeyAlbert API key?

Request early access through the demo form with the topic "Agents". After we confirm your use case, we email a personal key for one named user.

Can my team share one key?

No. Each key belongs to one named user and may not be shared. Ask for a key for each person.

What if my key leaks?

Email albert@heyalbert.site. We revoke it and issue a new one; a revoked key stops working within about a minute.
