# Models

Use the model ID in the `model` field of your request.

| Model ID | Name | Made by | Good for | Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `glm-5.2` | Analyst (GLM-5.2) | Z.ai, China | Complex reasoning, analysis and agents | To be confirmed |
| `kimi-k2.6` | Agent (Kimi K2.6) | Moonshot AI, China | Long tasks and working with tools | 256K tokens (about 380 pages) |
| `gpt-oss-120b` | Generalist (GPT-OSS 120B) | OpenAI, United States | General business work, United States origin | 128K tokens (about 190 pages) |
| `mistral-medium-3.5` | Writer (Mistral Medium 3.5) | Mistral AI, France | Long documents, writing and many languages, European origin | 256K tokens (about 380 pages) |
| `qwen3-coder-30b` | Coder (Qwen3 Coder 30B) | Alibaba, China | Fast, low-cost coding at high volume | 256K tokens (about 380 pages) |
| `gemma-4-26b` | Assistant (Gemma 4 26B) | Google, United States | Everyday tasks at low cost | 256K tokens (about 380 pages) |

Embedding models, for [`/v1/embeddings`](/docs/embeddings):

| Model ID | Name | Made by | Good for | Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `qwen3-embedding-8b` | Librarian (Qwen3 Embedding 8B) | Alibaba, China | Search across your documents, in over 100 languages | 32K tokens per input |
| `bge-m3` | Indexer (BGE-M3) | BAAI, China | Fast, low-cost search over large collections | 8K tokens per input |

Context is the most text a model can work with in one request, counting both what you send and its reply. 1,000 tokens is roughly 750 words.

## List the models available to your key

```bash
curl https://api.continuumlabs.ai/v1/models
```

```json
{"object": "list", "data": [{"id": "glm-5.2", "object": "model", "owned_by": "continuum"}]}
```

## Choosing a model

- **For hard analysis and agents,** start with the largest models.
- **For high-volume, simple work** such as classification and extraction, a smaller model is faster and cheaper. Test it on your own examples first.
- **For a particular country of origin,** filter by origin on the [models page](/models). Some organisations prefer or require models from particular countries.

Try any model on your own prompt in the [playground](/playground).

## Prices

Prices per million tokens are on the [pricing page](https://www.continuumlabs.ai/pricing). You pay for the tokens you send and the tokens the model writes, at the rates for the model you choose.
