# Recipes for documents, search, and support
URL: https://docs.munito.ai/recipes

Each recipe combines Munito AI APIs with application code for one task.
Use the complete examples for your first implementation, then evaluate them on your own inputs.

## Before you start [#before-you-start]

Create a key in the [console](https://console.munito.ai) and set `MUNITO_API_KEY` in your environment.
The [quickstart](https://docs.munito.ai/quickstart) explains the first API request.
The search, support, review, and transcript examples use the EU host.
See [Regions](https://docs.munito.ai/regions) for the scope of that choice.

Structured outputs control the JSON shape. Your application must still check the values and the source evidence.
See the [production checklist](https://docs.munito.ai/production-checklist) for errors, rate limits, and retries.
