# Regions and model availability

Some AI model providers have location-based restrictions, which means certain models may not be available in your region. When this happens, those models won't appear in Cursor, but all other models continue to work.

## What can I do if a model is unavailable in my region?

1. **Use Auto**: Auto selects an available model for each request
2. **Pick a different model**: Manually select any model that remains enabled in your account
3. **Bring your own API key**: If your provider serves your region, add your key in **Cursor Settings** > **Models**. Calls may still fail if the provider blocks your region even with your own key.
