Which should I use?
Both work well for daily synthesis and standups. The difference shows in performance reviews:
- Groq โ fastest inference, highest daily request limit. Best for multiple syntheses per day.
- Gemini โ 1M token context means the entire history fits in one prompt. Better for very detailed long-period reviews.
Switching providers
Update devlog.apiKey in Settings (Cmd+,) with your new key. DevLog detects the provider from the key prefix automatically. No restart needed.
Rate limits
DevLog makes 4 parallel AI calls per synthesis (summary, standup, work areas, decisions) and 2 calls for performance review. A typical day uses fewer than 10 requests โ well within both free tiers.
