AI Crypto Model Selection: A Prompt That Requests Evidence and Invalidation

ChartsPod's agent works with your own model key. Which model you pick changes cost, speed and how carefully tool results are used — so test it on the same prompt.

Short answer

ChartsPod's AI agent uses bring-your-own-key: the key stays in the browser, and the agent's 69 tools and tool calls are visible. To choose a model, run the same evidence-and-invalidation prompt on two or three models with the same market and window, and compare: did each call the right tools, quote values with timestamps, cite sources, give a testable invalidation and admit missing data? Prefer the model that is consistently verifiable over the one that writes most fluently, and note cost per run.
