AI Teams: Choosing Your Model Lineup

Quick Answer: AI Teams groups your AI models into specialist teams - the A-team, Operators, and Daily Drivers - and lets you choose which model from each provider fills each team’s slot. Leave it on Auto and the Smart Selector routes each message to the best-fit team, or pick a team yourself for a single turn.
Note: This page previously described the retired “Full Power / Balanced” AI Power selector. That control was replaced by AI Teams - everything below reflects the current system.

​
What It Does

Each AI provider (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity) offers multiple model tiers - from fast and efficient to powerful and thorough. AI Teams organizes those tiers into named teams, and you choose which model from each provider fills each team’s slot - all-premium, all-fast, or any mix that fits how you work.

​
The A-team

Deep deliberation for strategic decisions, novel problems, and high-stakes calls. Uses the most capable version of each AI.
  • Produces more thorough, nuanced responses
  • Handles complex reasoning better
  • Uses more of your monthly usage per message
Best for: Complex analysis, high-stakes decisions, detailed research, important documents.

​
Operators

The workhorse team - real tasks that don’t need maximum brainpower at maximum cost.
  • Handles day-to-day professional work well
  • Balances depth and usage per message
Best for: Planning, drafting, and everyday questions that still deserve a capable model.

​
Daily Drivers

Speed and large context for parsing, structured extraction, and data work.
  • Responds quicker
  • Uses the least of your monthly usage per message
  • Handles everyday questions well
Best for: Quick questions, brainstorming, everyday tasks, casual exploration. This is the default team for new conversations.

​
Auto and the Smart Selector

Leave your team on Auto and the Smart Selector routes each message to the best-fit team automatically. You can also pick a team manually for a single turn - it applies to that message, then hands control back to Auto.

​
Where to Find It

Go to Settings, Usage Control tab. Your AI Teams lineup is there. You can also pick a team per turn from the chat’s settings panel.

​
Availability

AI Teams model selection is available on every plan. Spark includes two teams - Operators and Daily Drivers (no A-team) - and you switch between them per turn. The automatic Smart Selector (Auto) and the third team, the A-team, are available on Pro, Frontier, Power, and Enterprise. Frontier, Power, and Enterprise can additionally select the most capable premium models into any team slot.

​
Tips

  • Leave it on Auto for most conversations (Pro and above) - the Smart Selector routes each message to the best-fit team, so you rarely need to think about it.
  • Switch to the A-team manually when a question deserves the extra depth. Most everyday questions don’t need the most powerful models.
  • Daily Drivers uses the least of your monthly usage per message. If you’re hitting your usage limits, lean on Daily Drivers for routine tasks and save the A-team for important conversations.
  • The difference is most noticeable on complex, multi-layered questions. For simple factual queries, the teams produce similar results.
  • Your AI Teams setting applies to all modes - Sequential, Super Mind, Debate, and others.
