Please try againAskAnyModel is a browser-based workspace that includes access to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Mistral, DeepSeek, Meta and others. You type a prompt once and send it to up to six models at the same time, then read the answers in a grid alongside response times and token counts. Switching models partway through a conversation keeps your context intact, and responses stream as they arrive.What’s included with a lifetime licenseThirty standard models run without usage limits, including Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, Qwen Coder and Kimi K2, which cover routine writing, summarizing and research. A monthly allowance of 500 premium credits opens 19 flagship models for heavier work, including GPT-5.4, Claude Opus, Gemini 3 Pro and Grok. You decide how to spend those credits across that group each month.A Gemini model with Google Search grounding comes with the plan at 300 chats per week. Image generation is unlimited and draws nothing from the premium pool. The model catalog gets refreshed as new releases arrive, so the license keeps pace rather than freezing at today’s line-up.How to sign up and what it costsPurchase through our deal page and redeem the code within 30 days. AskAnyModel opens in Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox and runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. One license covers one account, and premium use beyond 500 monthly credits may require purchasing additional licenses.
