OpenCode Team Open-Sources Its Gem: Price, Specs, Capabilities & More!

Models.dev: Open-source AI model database with pricing, specs, and JSON API.

Developers building AI applications these days all share the same feeling: model selection has become an increasingly painful problem.

The era when only a handful of providers existed is long gone. Now we have proprietary models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and many others. On top of that, there are countless open-source models and specialized vertical-domain models. The sheer number of AI models on the market has become overwhelming.

Every time you need to compare parameters, pricing, and capabilities across several models, you end up opening multiple browser tabs and jumping back and forth between different vendors’ documentation—checking OpenAI’s GPT series pricing, then Anthropic Claude’s context limits, then verifying whether a certain model supports tool calling. This fragmented way of gathering information is not only inefficient but also prone to incomplete data and poor decision-making.

What’s even more frustrating is that some providers hide pricing for older model versions or scatter model information across multiple pages. For projects that are sensitive to development costs and require accurate budget forecasting, this lack of transparency is a nightmare.

Recently, I discovered the Models.dev project on GitHub, which perfectly solves this pain point.

Developed by the OpenCode team, Models.dev is a fully open-source AI model database that standardizes and consolidates all key information for mainstream models in one place.
