# Provide models through your API

> Prepare your provider application, prove domain control, and follow each model route through review.

Apply to make models served by your organization's API available to Millwork
customers. Your service continues to run on your infrastructure. A **model
route** names an exact model release and endpoint; a **feed** contains the route
details you submit for review.

Provider access is **by invitation**. Start with the browser workspace; machine
access needs a separate invitation for your organization.

## Choose your next step

| What you need | Where to continue |
| - | - |
| Apply for your organization | [Submit a provider application](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/get-started/provider-onboarding.md) |
| Prove that you control the API hostname | [Prove domain control](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/providers/prove-domain.md) |
| Prepare a feed without making a request | [Check a model feed](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/providers/check-feed.md) |
| Give an invited tool limited access | [Create a provider machine key](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/providers/machine-keys.md) |
| Understand a route's review and customer access | [Read model route status](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/providers/route-status.md) |

The **Provider workspace** is your organization's dashboard area for its
application, domain proof, model routes and feeds. Use the same Millwork sign-in
and organization you used for the application. Connecting your account at a
model provider is a different task; see [Connect a provider account](https://docs.getmillwork.dev/guides/connect-a-source.md).

## Review and customer access

Submitting a feed stages metadata. Millwork separately tests and reviews each
route, prepares approved routes to serve requests, and enables customer access.
Read the route's status and next action before assuming customers can use it.

When a customer uses their own account at your service, they pay you under that
account's agreement. Millwork pays you nothing for that customer usage; the
[Provider Agreement, fees and payment](https://getmillwork.dev/millwork/legal/provider-agreement#11-fees-and-payment)
states the separate exceptions, including authorized testing. Submitting a
route creates no payment or traffic commitment.
