# LLM Foundation {#start}

![](Images/netresearch-underline.svg)

---

Shared AI foundation for TYPO3. Configure LLM
providers once and reuse them in extensions that integrate with nr-llm.
Supports OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini,
Ollama, and more.

Start with [Quick start](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/netresearch/nr-llm:quickstart@0.44) to connect a provider and run a first request.
Editors can use prepared tasks through [For editors](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/netresearch/nr-llm:editors@0.44); developers can follow
[Build your extension on nr-llm](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/netresearch/nr-llm:integration-guide@0.44) to add a configured AI call to an extension.
