Hey everyone,

We are launching a new AI router: Alter Fast

Based on your needs, we will intelligently route your request to the right model from a selection of the fastest available, **our fastest one being 17x faster than GPT-5 high.**

It’s more than a performance toggle, it’s a re‑imagining of what AI UX can be.

We are so confident people will love it, it is now the setting per default for all new Alter users.

## What's New?

We handpicked the fastest models available on the market, without sacrificing quality, with the fastest one peaking at 3000 tokens/s.

Feel free to try that one individually too, it is `Cerebras/gpt-oss-120b`

Be aware, speed is addictive.

## How to enable it

When typing `/` to display your model list, you can now see Alter Fast; just select it and you can drive on the high‑speed lane of information.

## Should you I use it `Fast` all the time?

We’ve been testing fast for a week now, and for the vast majority of the tasks, it works like a dream.

If you are a heavy user of tools, you may still want to keep `/best`, `Claude 4.5`, or `GPT‑5`.

Also, don’t forget you can specify which model you want to use at an Alter Action level in the `Advanced` tab.

## Your feedback are important!

As we’ve been playing with this for less than a week, I’m sure we have not faced the diversity of tasks and contexts. So let us know if you find a scenario where `/fast` fell short.

And of course, feel free to share some love too, if you like it.

Cheers
