January 1. New year. Better building decisions from day one.
One of the hardest parts of building an AI tool isn’t prompts.
It’s choosing the right model and understanding what you’re actually paying for.
That’s exactly what this release fixes.

You can now browse and compare 40+ AI models from leading providers, all in one place, before committing them to your tool.
What’s new (and important):
When you click into any model, you don’t just see a name. You see how it behaves in the real world.
For every model, the hub shows:
-
Median cost per request and token pricing -
Strengths, modalities, and supported actions -
Context window and max output size -
Popularity ranking and adoption trends -
Cost comparisons against similar models -
Speed and latency based on actual usage -
Token usage patterns from real builder runs
You can even see how a model stacks up:
-
Against other models from the same provider
-
Against cheaper and pricier alternatives
-
Based on real adoption, not marketing claims
And when you’re ready:
-
Start the builder with that model preselected
-
Drop in your prompt or template
-
Ship to web, embed, or API in a few clicks
