This is part idea and question. I think integration somehow with the Vertex AI platform would be great. I do see that Empirical supports Gemini models via a Google API key. Those API keys are generated through access to Google AI Studio, which in turn is accessed through Google Workspaces. In my instance however, my company doesn't leverage Workspaces, but instead has access to Vertex AI within Google Cloud, and access to that API is not done through API keys, but through IAM policies/application default credentials.

The nice thing about using the Gemini API for Vertex AI, is that we have access to dozens of models including all the Google of course, Anthropic, Mistral etc.

Not sure if that can be done, but wanted to throw that idea out there. Thanks again for a amazing tool, keep up the amazing work!
