Good point. There isn't really a single database with information about all the availablle AI model databases. Someone should start a community-contributed project to address this!
Models.dev: open-source database of AI model specs, pricing, and capabilities

#22What would be helpful is also harness + models. I realized I can get Pi Dev and DeepSeek Pro to do the same work as Claude Code + Opus 4.7.
I was skeptical at first, but I tried using that and then asked Claude if the changes were okay, and they were, and the code works fine.

At this point you have to use more than one to get a complete picture, which I’m doing now. Mainly because:
1) some are not always up to date (started on helicone but felt a lag on price updates)
2) they don’t return every model / provider I want (https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1/models has rich data but is a subset, so I combine with helicone)
I always hope for the best when someone has a new list because of this. I want a de facto source!

#24The folks at OpenRouter has an API for listing AI models: https://openrouter.ai/docs/api/api-reference/models/get-mode...
This has been solid and I use this for my Open Source project RightModel: https://rightmodel.dev

It would be good to know as well if a model uses your data for something.

#26This needs filter by “current”. Most of models are superseded by newer versions that cost same or less, and there’s no reason to have old ones in the list when most of users want to evaluate the current market.

The boilerplate really does get out of hand sometimes. “There isn’t X. We built X.” Really wish more folks would stick to the older “I couldn’t find X so I built it.”
Or even better. ”We don’t think the existing X matches our goals so we will make a new X”

Well, for now we know for certain that Anthropic uses your data to help killing people. The tanned ones, of course, but still.
So I opted for the chinese version. I personally see them as a lesser evil.
