Excelled Tasks Code generation, refactoring, and API documentation. Simple logic checks, brainstorming, and fast summaries. Complex math, scientific research, and deep architectural debugging.
Speed / Time Fast: Near-instant "streaming" of code and text. Very Fast: Optimized for sub-second response times. Slow: Takes 10–60+ seconds to "think" before responding.
Cost Standard: Priced per standard input/output token. Economical: Uses minimal "reasoning tokens," making it cost-effective. Premium: Most expensive due to high "Chain of Thought" token usage.
