Hey everyone,

🔥 **JUST RELEASED**: We're excited to announce a major upgrade: Best Model Selection! Alter now intelligently chooses the optimal AI model for your prompts and Alter Actions, delivering faster and more reliable results.

We spent weeks doing benchmark both in term of speed and quality, and we feel we are now the [Robert Parker ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert%5FParker%5F%28wine%5Fcritic%29?utm%5Fsource=list.alterhq.com&utm%5Fmedium=referral&utm%5Fcampaign=stop-thinking-about-ai-models-we-built-the-system-that-chooses-for-you)of the LLM world.

## What This Means For Your Productivity:

- **Faster (obey your master!)**: Experience up to 50% speed improvement on many actions like Correct grammar.
- **Handles Complex Tasks**: No more context window worries! Alter automatically selects the best model for large documents, multiple folders, and search requests.
- **Vision by Default**: Image understanding is now seamless. You don't need to think about model capabilities – Alter handles it.

## The Problem We Solved

Stop wasting time manually selecting AI models. Alter's Best Model Selection takes the guesswork out of the equation, so you can focus on what matters: your work.

## See It In Action:

Type ‘/’ and choose: Alter > Best

## Important note:

While we've optimized Best Model Selection globally, performance can sometimes vary based on your location. If you encounter any issues, please contact us at [hi@alterhq.com](mailto:hi@alterhq.com) or join our Discord community (link below). We're committed to making it work perfectly for you!
