Nice idea but expensive. It looks like they don’t add very low cost models like DeepSeek v4 flash into their mix.

After a few months of spending money on the best frontier models, now I am spending time using DeepSeek v4 flash as my workhorse, and flipping to more capable (but still very inexpensive) open models on an as-needed basis. We all make our own tool selection decisions, but for me, I feel happier and enjoy working more following the very fast response and ultra low cost path.



We found that an all open source fusion was 1/3 the price and better than Fable

Brilliant. What this actually is, is a swarm, albeit a very small one. I'm wondering if for research specifically, swarm size (on higher temp?) would outweigh model size.

At least, for the initial data gathering phase. You'd probably want a sequence of progressively larger models to filter it.

Have you guys tested it on anything other than research?
