# Model Providers
OpenClaw can use many LLM providers. Pick one, authenticate, then set the default
model as `provider/model`.
## Highlight: Venice (Venice AI)
Venice is our recommended Venice AI setup for privacy-first inference with an option to use Opus for the hardest tasks.
- Default: `venice/llama-3.3-70b`
- Best overall: `venice/claude-opus-45` (Opus remains the strongest)
See [Venice AI](/providers/venice).
## Quick start (two steps)
1. Authenticate with the provider (usually via `openclaw onboard`).
2. Set the default model:
```json5
{
agents: { defaults: { model: { primary: "anthropic/claude-opus-4-5" } } },
}
```
