How to build ai tools?
An AI answer engine with an agent mode that plans multi-step work and runs connectors, with a model picker spanning free open models and paid GPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok tiers. The live site positions it as a cheaper alternative to Perplexity and Comet, with plans from Free to a $179 Power tier.
Define an input, an output and an evaluation set before choosing a model. Add retrieval when answers need source evidence, and use explicit permissions for tool actions. Measure answer quality, latency and cost on the same tasks before expanding the workflow.
What to verify before buying
- Citations that support each answer
- Model access and usage limits
- Permissions for connector actions
- Cost per usable answer on the same tasks
