Chatbox is a cross-platform desktop AI client for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It also provides a web version. Its built-in OpenAI provider lets you customize the API Host, so you can point Chatbox to the ScitiX Model Inference API and use ScitiX models. Supported models include glm-5.2 and DeepSeek-V4-Flash. For model pricing, see the model catalog.

​
Configure

The steps below use the Chatbox desktop app as an example. Chatbox Web uses a similar configuration flow.
  1. Open Settings from the gear icon in the bottom-left corner, then go to Model Provider.
  2. Select the built-in OpenAI provider and fill in the required fields.
  3. In the model section, click Fetch to load the model list, then add the models you want to use, such as glm-5.2. If Chatbox cannot fetch the model list, check that the API Host and API Key are correct. You can also click + New to add a model ID manually. Clicking Reset clears the model list.
  4. Click Check and select a model to test the connection. Chatbox displays a Model Test Results dialog and checks capabilities such as Text, Vision, and Tool Use Request. If you see Connection successful!, the connection is working. Model Test Results reports Vision and Tool Use support by model. A model may pass the Text check but not support Vision. If you rely on tool/function features, choose a model with native tool calling support.
