Tool use

Why it stands out

256K-token context window handles longer documents and multi-turn conversations without truncation.

Tool use support makes it viable for function-calling and agentic pipelines.

$0.3/M input makes it practical for always-on agents, batch processing, or high-volume classification.

What to watch

Text-only input — image or audio workflows require a separate model in the pipeline.

No benchmark score currently tracked — evaluate using task-specific testing alongside pricing and capability data.
