Cheaper alternatives to today's top models
Frequently asked questions
How are alternatives chosen?
An alternative must be ranked, score within the tolerance you set of the model you use now, and cost less per token (or have open weights if you ask for that). Results are sorted cheapest first.
Is a cheaper alternative always a good swap?
Not always. Overall scores hide category differences, so check the category you depend on with the compare link before switching.
