Choose Eddie's intelligence level

The bulb in the prompt box picks how hard Eddie thinks: 1 Faster, 2 Balanced or 3 Deepest. Higher levels take longer and cost more credits.

The bulb button in the prompt box sets how hard Eddie thinks about your requests in this project.

The three levels

  • 1 — Faster. Quick passes and small changes.
  • 2 — Balanced. The default for most edits.
  • 3 — Deepest. Long or complicated edits. It takes more time and more credits.

How it works

  • The level is saved for the project and applies to every prompt until you change it.
  • Every prompt run is billed on what it actually used, so a higher level costs more credits for the same request.
  • Start on Balanced. Move to Deepest for a long assembly or a request with many parts. Move to Faster for trims, renames and other small changes.
