Anthropic / Claude Opus 4.8
maxDescription
Anthropic's flagship is built for work that other models get wrong. Opus 4.8 takes on the hardest coding, the deepest analysis, and writing that has to be right first time. It reads images and documents, holds a very large amount of context at once, and works through problems step by step so you can follow its logic. Slower and more expensive than lighter models, by design.
OpenAI / GPT-4o Mini
lightDescription
OpenAI's older small model was built for fast, cheap, focused tasks. GPT-4o Mini reads text and images and handles classification, extraction, translation, and short-form generation well. It is affordable and reliable for simple work, but it is now several generations old, with a modest feature set and outdated knowledge. OpenAI itself recommends newer small models for anything demanding.

Aymo gives you more than access to individual models—it provides a complete multi-model AI workspace designed for productivity.
Anthropic / Claude Opus 4.8
maxCoding Assistance
Best-in-class. Handles large refactors, subtle bugs, and unfamiliar codebases. Built for the code that defeats lighter models, not routine changes.
Reasoning & Problem Solving
Best-in-class. Works through multi-step problems in the open, showing its reasoning as it goes. Strongest where the answer is not obvious.
Document & File Understanding
Best-in-class. A one-million-token context window, roughly 750,000 words. Load a full contract set, research folder, or codebase and ask questions across all of it.
Writing & Content Creation
Best-in-class. Professional output that needs editing rather than rewriting. Holds tone and structure across long pieces, up to 128,000 tokens in a single response.
Research & Analysis
Best-in-class. Reads dense, contradictory, or ambiguous material and forms a judgment. The strongest choice when the analysis itself is the hard part.
Multimodal Support
Text and images. Anthropic's documentation lists text and image input for all current Claude models. Audio and video input are not listed. Reads PDFs, spreadsheets, contracts, and code files.
OpenAI / GPT-4o Mini
lightLightweight Coding Tasks
Suited to simple, well-scoped coding help, such as small scripts and quick fixes. Not built for complex engineering, OpenAI now points to newer small models for anything beyond focused tasks.
No-Reasoning Answers
A fast model with no reasoning step, so it answers directly rather than deliberating. Reliable on straightforward instructions, and less suited to multi-step problems that need worked-through logic.
A Modest Context Window
Handles a smaller window than current models, enough for everyday documents and conversations but not the large codebases or long document sets that newer models take in one pass.
Structured Short-Form Output
Strong at extracting structured data and drafting short content like email replies from thread history. Built for focused, repetitive text work rather than long-form or polished writing.
Analysis On Older Knowledge
Its training data is well behind current models, so it is fine for processing text you supply but weak on recent events, which need live sources rather than the model's own knowledge.
Text And Image Input
Reads text and images, so you can send screenshots or scanned pages alongside your prompt. Output is text only. OpenAI states audio and video are not supported.
