Choosing a model

Metir is not tied to one AI company. The composer's category chip switches between tiers of capability, and inside each tier you can choose the exact model you want from several providers.

Your choice sticks until you change it

Switching from Auto to Genius
  1. The chip is on Auto by default
  2. Five categories, cheapest to strongest
  3. Picking one opens the full model list
  4. Your choice sticks until you change it

The five categories

CategoryUse it for
AutoEverything, unless you have a reason not to. Metir chooses per message.
SmartQuick questions, drafting and summarising. Fastest and cheapest.
ExpertAnalysis, longer documents and careful writing.
GeniusHard reasoning, maths, code and multi-step problems. Slowest and most expensive.
ImageGenerating and editing pictures. See images.

Picking a specific model

Choosing any category other than Auto opens the model picker. Models are grouped by the company that made them, so you can pick a specific one when you have a preference.

What the badges mean

Small icons beside a model's name say what it can do. Hover one to see its name.

  • Pro plan, a star: available on paid plans.
  • Reads files, a paperclip: this model can read attachments.
  • Reasoning, a brain: this model thinks before answering, which is slower and better on hard problems.

Choosing a model selects it straight away; there is nothing else to confirm.

Why Auto is the default

Auto picks for you, so you do not pay Genius prices for a one-line answer and you do not get a rushed answer to a hard question. See plans and credits.

Some models do not accept file attachments. If Upload from computer, My Files and Recent attachments are greyed out in the plus menu, the selected model is the reason. Switch category, or pick a model with the Reads files badge.
