The model catalog
When you choose a model for an app, thinkhx shows you a catalog of available models organised around the task you want to do. You don't browse it as a separate page — it's the model-selection step of the choose-a-model wizard. This topic explains how that catalog is organised and what each badge on a model means, so you can pick with confidence.
How the catalog is organised
The catalog narrows down to the right model in three steps:
- Task category — What would you like to do? The broad kind of work (for example writing, analysing or working with images).
- Task type — What is your goal? The precise task within that category.
- Model — the models suited to that goal, grouped under the provider that makes them. thinkhx preselects the most suitable ones for you.
Because the list is built from your answers, you only ever see models that fit the task you chose.
Read what a model can do
Each model card carries badges that tell you its capabilities at a glance:
- Text — the model accepts text input.
- Image — the model accepts image input.
- Context size (orange badge) — how much information the model can take into account at once. A larger context lets you send more data or longer instructions.
- Size / power (a parameter-scale badge such as "7B") — bigger variants are more capable; some models offer several sizes you can pick between.
Note — The same Text and Image badges, and the orange context-size badge, also appear on app cards in The app catalog and on the run screen, so you can tell what an app's model supports before you run it.
Check whether a model is in your plan
The catalog shows every model, but only the ones included in your plan are selectable.
- In the model step, look at each card's state.
- A model above your plan appears greyed out and labelled with the plan that unlocks it.
- To use it, upgrade — see Plans & billing.
Note — When you pick a model size that your plan doesn't allow, the wizard asks you to select an available power before you can save.
