Writing & chat: how to choose a model

Writing, summarization, translation, and Q&A usually take text and return text. Confirm language, context length, and output requirements before choosing a model and API.

Before integrating

  • 01Check input language, source length, and context limits.
  • 02Check the protocol, such as Chat Completions or Responses, and use its own fields.
  • 03For structured results, verify JSON and tool-calling support.
  • 04Retain references and have factual outputs checked.

Fluent answers can still be incorrect. Retrieval, citations, and human verification are separate steps.
