[Litellm](https://litellm.vercel.app/docs/) is compatible with over 100 large language models (LLMs), all using a standardized input/output format. You can explore the [available models](https://litellm.vercel.app/docs/providers) to use with Litellm. Ensure you set the `API_KEY` for the model you choose to use.

## Usage

```python
import os
from mem0 import Memory

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"

config = {
    "llm": {
        "provider": "litellm",
        "config": {
            "model": "gpt-5-mini",
            "temperature": 0.2,
            "max_tokens": 2000,
        }
    }
}

m = Memory.from_config(config)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "I'm planning to watch a movie tonight. Any recommendations?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "How about thriller movies? They can be quite engaging."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "I’m not a big fan of thriller movies but I love sci-fi movies."},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Got it! I'll avoid thriller recommendations and suggest sci-fi movies in the future."}
]
m.add(messages, user_id="alice", metadata={"category": "movies"})
