Choose Auto if you want Boei to choose and maintain the model for you. You can also choose a specific model. The credit cost is shown beside each choice.
| Choice | When to choose it | Credits per AI step |
|---|---|---|
| Auto | You want Boei to choose and maintain the model for you. | 1 |
| Mistral Large | You want a model from European provider Mistral. | 1 |
| Claude Opus 5.5 | You specifically want Anthropic’s Claude model. | 5 |
| Gemini 4 Argon | You specifically want Google’s Gemini model. | 5 |
| GPT-6 Astra | You specifically want OpenAI’s Astra model. | 10 |
An AI step is one call to the model. A reply can take several steps. For example, if the chatbot calls the model once to decide what to look up, then again to answer with the result, that uses two steps. This example costs 2 credits with Auto, 10 with Claude Opus 5.5 or Gemini 4 Argon, and 20 with GPT-6 Astra. Read what else spends chatbot credits.
Keep Auto if you do not have a provider preference. A higher credit price does not guarantee a better answer to every question. Before choosing a premium model, test the questions your visitors actually ask.
An older saved model may appear as a disabled current selection. You can still change other settings while it is saved, but you cannot select that old model again after changing away from it. If Boei has moved your chatbot to a replacement, an editor left open before the move cannot restore the retired model. Reload the editor to see the current setting.
