Available models
| Model | Provider | Profile | Thinking/Reasoning | Credit usage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPT-5 | OpenAI | Most advanced coding model | ✅ Deep multi-step reasoning | Premium (credits) |
| GPT-4.1 | OpenAI | Fast senior programmer | – | Premium (credits) |
| GPT-4.1 mini | OpenAI | Fast junior programmer | – | Basic (no credits) |
| Gemini 2.0 Flash | Fast junior programmer | – | Basic (no credits) | |
| Claude Sonnet 3.7 / 4 | Anthropic | Strong quality-speed balance | ✅ | Premium (credits) |
| Claude Opus 4 | Anthropic | Highest-quality reasoning | ✅ | Premium (credits) |
You may occasionally see experimental / stealth models (e.g., Horizon
Alpha). Availability changes—watch our socials for announcements.
If you’re iterating rapidly or doing light edits, choose a Basic model to
avoid credit usage. Switch to a Premium model for complex refactors,
tricky bugs, or multi-step integrations.
Quick guidance
- Speed first (UI copy, small edits, quick prompts): GPT-4.1 mini or Gemini Flash 2.0
- General coding (features, refactors, tests): GPT-4.1 or Claude Sonnet
- Hard tasks (deep reasoning, multi-file migrations): GPT-5 or Claude Opus
Thinking-enabled models (e.g., GPT-5, Sonnet/Opus) are slower and consume more
credits. Use them when the extra reasoning matters.
