Choosing a model · RoGenie docs

RoGenie has 107 built-in models from 11 families: Claude, DeepSeek, MiniMax, GPT, Gemini, Kimi, Qwen, Grok, GLM, Mistral, Composer. You do not need any API keys to use them. Pick a model with the Model button beside the message box. Each chat keeps the model you last picked in it.

The two Auto modes

Mode	What it does	Multiplier
Auto (intelligent & cheap)	The default. Runs a capable, low-cost model at a fraction of the quota, with automatic failover between routes. Handles most wishes well.	0.058×
Auto (Smartest Available)	Sends every turn to the smartest model available. The most capable choice, and the priciest of the two.	0.4×

If a model is unavailable, Auto routes around it automatically.

The quota multiplier

The number beside each model is its quota multiplier: how fast it uses your quota compared with Claude Opus 5, which is 1× (priced at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens). A 0.5× model uses your quota half as fast as Opus 5; a 2× model uses it twice as fast. Auto (intelligent & cheap) runs at 0.058×, and the cheapest model in the catalog right now is GPT 6 Luna (0.02×).

The label is an estimate for a typical RoGenie run. Under the hood, input and output tokens each have their own multiplier, and you are billed by those exactly. Hover a model's multiplier to see both.
A model with no published price shows an estimate with ~ and is billed at the default 1×.
Models that run on your own API key show Your API key · no RoGenie quota and do not use your quota at all.

How to choose

You want	Try
Everyday building, small fixes, assets, UI	Auto (intelligent & cheap)
Hard logic, tricky bugs, large refactors	A stronger model, or Auto (Smartest Available), and a higher effort
To stretch your quota	A model with a low multiplier. When you reach 75% of a quota window, RoGenie offers to switch you to Auto (intelligent & cheap).
A model you already pay for elsewhere	Add your own key for that provider
Different models for different jobs in one run	Pick per role in Agent settings, for example a cheap model for asset searches and a strong one for scripting

Routes and fallback

Many models are offered through more than one route (a provider that serves the model). The picker shows how many routes a model has and which one is currently best. RoGenie uses the best available route and falls back automatically if it fails, so a model keeps working when one provider has a problem. Routes are shown as Provider 1, Provider 2 and so on.

You do not choose or order the routes yourself: RoGenie picks them for you. To run a provider's models on your own account instead, add your own key.

Using the picker

Type to search: a model name or a family like "Claude" or "Gemini".
Filter by family with the tabs.
Keyboard: ↑ ↓ to move, Enter to select, → to see a model's routes.
A model that is not available right now is greyed out with the reason.

If a chat's model is no longer available when you come back to it, RoGenie switches to another one and tells you.

Images and models

Not every model can read images. If you attach an image and the model cannot see it, RoGenie tells you; switch to a model that supports images.
