Managed Honcho Platform
Build socially intelligent agents without worrying about infrastructure
Sign up to start using Honcho!
Start using the platform to manage Honcho instances for your workspace or app.
The quickest way to begin using Honcho in production is with the Honcho Cloud Platform. Sign up, generate an API key, and start building with Honcho.
1. Go to app.honcho.dev
Create an account to start using Honcho. If a teammate already uses Honcho, ask them to invite you to their organization; otherwise, you’ll see a banner prompting you to create a new one.
Once you’ve created an organization, you’ll be taken to the dashboard and see the welcome page.
Each organization has dedicated infrastructure running to isolate your workloads. Until you activate a subscription under the Billing page, the infrastructure will be deactivated. You can check the status of your instance by going to the Status page.
2. Set up billing to activate your Honcho instance
Once you activate your subscription, your Honcho instance provisions automatically, and you can watch the status page until all systems show a green check mark.
Here you can monitor your Honcho instance health, usage metrics, and performance analytics. See request volume, API response times, and endpoint usage across all your AI applications.
You can also upgrade Honcho when new versions are made available.
3. Manage API Keys
Create and manage API keys for different environments. You can create
admin-level keys that have access to the entire Honcho instance or scope keys
to restrict access to Workspaces
, Peers
, or Sessions
.
4. Test with API Playground
Use our Postman-like API playground to test queries, explore endpoints, and validate your integration. Send requests directly to your Honcho instance and see real-time responses with full request/response logging.
5. Create a Workspace
On the explore page, you can see and interact with the data stored in your
Honcho instance. You can create Workspaces
, Peers
, Sessions
, and Messages
.
6. Peers & Sessions Management
Click into a Workspace
to open up the Workspace
dashboard. Here you can create
Peers
and Sessions
, use the Dialectic API and add Messages
to your Peer
representations. Utilize your ability to search across all Messages
in a
Workspace
.
7. Peer Utilities & Chat Endpoint
Select a Peer
to open its utilities. From here you can search that Peer
’s
Messages
, view participating Sessions
, or edit its metadata.
The Chat Endpoint allows you to send a query through the Honcho API to get
information about the Peer
’s representation. If you include the Session
ID,
the query will be scoped to Messages
and the representation of a Peer
within that Session
.
8. Session Dashboard & Get Context
From the workspace dashboard, navigate to a Session
to find options to add Peers
, view Messages
, and search across all Messages
for a particular session.
Use the Get Context feature to quickly generate output that fits into your LLM’s context window. Get a subset of messages with an optional summary based on the token count you input. The Session Context guide goes over how to use this in your agents
