There is I mean, in our roadmap we have an a ability for people to upload their custom models.

So let's say you have, you know, and untethered the model more and you wanna upload that, like we will we will support that.

But yeah, effectively you get what model offers, no more, no less.

Yeah, I mean I think th th this is there is a big philosophical question, right?

Which I think we we're we're actually starting to grab more and more and and like I mean we we can talk about all of the things that happening with the letters and all the stuff.

But maybe just to finish, the other important property which I think people forget is verifiability.

So the other thing you right now don't have when you use not just kind of

Closed source, OpenAI entropic, Google models.

But even when you s use other providers, you actually have no idea what you're getting back.

For example, you may be using some, you know, open weight provider, like GLM provider, and you asking it a question, they may be rewriting a prompt, they may be censoring you, they may be actually responding back with something that model what didn't respond.

So to give you a very specific example, I I I saw it on Twitter.

So I mean this this I'm assuming it was a joke, but somebody was like, Oh, we should really respond with a tool output that deletes people's files when we see them, you know, requesting from like s in a specific context.

Right?

So you can they can literally, especially in this agency systems, they can affect your system.

And and there was actually a research

That if you use some like third third-party routers on internet, they can literally like steal your files, rewrite your prompts, and respond with like viruses in the tool output when you're calling them from agents.

So you actually have no idea what you're getting.

And so we are effectively the provider that gives you this verifiability that you ran on this specific model, right?
