Model Selection
Models in AIDeepIn are configured by the admin (platform API keys and enablement live in the admin console); regular users only pick a model where they use it. The picker is global: chat, knowledge base Q&A and workflows share the same selection.
Where to Pick
| Scenario | Location |
|---|---|
| Text models (chat / KB Q&A / workflows) | The model selector above the chat input or on the KB Q&A page |
| Image models | The image model selector on the Draw page |
The selector shows "platform avatar + model name".
Model Types
| Type | Purpose | Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Text | Chat, Q&A, workflow generation | Model selectors |
| Vision (multimodal) | Text plus image recognition | Upload-image button appears in chat |
| Image (text-to-image) | Generate images from text | Draw page |
| TTS | AI reply voices | Character voice settings |
| ASR | Voice questions to text | Mic icon in the chat input bar |
Capability Differences
The UI adapts automatically per model:
- Deep thinking:
- Unsupported models disable the toggle ("The model does not support deep thinking");
- Models that can't turn it off (e.g. deepseek-reasoner) keep it on ("The model does not support disabling deep thinking");
- Web search: unsupported models show "The model does not support web search";
- Mutual exclusion: DeepSeek's deep thinking vs tools/web search — enabling both auto-disables one with a hint;
- Image recognition: only vision models show the upload entry (PNG / JPG, ≤ 4MB; otherwise "The model does not support image recognition").
When a Model Is Unavailable
- Models with a red dot failed health checks: hover shows the specific reason (healthReason) or "Unavailable";
- Pick an available model. Enablement and platform configuration are admin tasks, see Admin Console; integrating a brand-new platform is covered in the Model Platform Integration Guide.
TIP
Models differ a lot on the same task: prefer reasoner models for reasoning-heavy work; everyday chat is cheaper on regular text models. The free/paid flag affects how your quota is counted.
