Model Tiers & Capabilities
How models are categorized and what capabilities mean.
Models in PeerLM are organized into four tiers based on their pricing and capability level. Tiers determine both credit cost and plan availability.
Tier Definitions
- Standard (1x multiplier) — Smaller, faster models. Available on all plans.
- Advanced (1x multiplier) — Mid-range models with strong general performance. Available on all plans.
- Premium (2x multiplier) — Large frontier-class models. Pro and Enterprise only.
- Frontier (3x multiplier) — Newest cutting-edge models. Enterprise only.
Model Capabilities
Each model has a capabilities profile that PeerLM checks before making API calls:
- Temperature — whether the model accepts a temperature parameter
- Seed — whether deterministic seeding is supported
- System prompt — whether the model supports a system message
- JSON mode — whether structured output is supported
- Max tokens — the model's maximum output length
If a capability is not supported, PeerLM automatically omits that parameter. You never need to worry about sending unsupported parameters.
Model Sync
PeerLM syncs model versions daily. When a model is updated by its provider, the old version is marked as superseded and a new record is created. Your evaluation results are always tied to the specific model version used at run time.
