Combine the world's best AIs to answer your hardest questions.

Best
It is a cool and novel solution to get one well-thought-out response that takes the best bits from each AI. I also like the final output that include pictures, videos, charts, tables, mindmaps.
How do you determine which segments from the various AI outputs to be formed as the final output? When it comes to research, does Ithy go deeper than Perplexity Pro (a combo of Web, Academic, Social)?
Congrats on your PH launch, @wluk and all the best!
I've also open-sourced a lot of these aggregation prompts, so you can actually try it out yourself! https://github.com/winsonluk/ithy
By using multiple LLMs (and 5 different search engines vs. Perplexity's 1 LLM and 1 search engine), I've generally seen better responses from Ithy (even when comparing Ithy Pro vs Perplexity Pro).

@wluk Thanks for your reply. I saw a video yesterday on creating multimedia pages based on YouTube. It is similar to your output. Watch it - https://youtu.be/Q_mBupv-WOM?si=_D8UdMfZUD-fprVZ&t=65. See if you can replicate the output format.
@andy_lim Neat! I remember when Sonnet 3.7 came out, everyone would ask it to "Make a website for [X]" - this is exactly what they're doing here!
I've actually tried this for Ithy, and it works well for about 50% of questions I've tested with. But the other 50% have broken buttons, aren't mobile compatible, have unusable images, etc.
So instead of prompting a LLM to "Make a website for [X]", Ithy provides very specific instructions for how to generate an article. While this limits the creativity, it prevents those bugs and makes sure Ithy's answers are 100% perfect.
Maybe when Sonnet 4.0 comes out, "Make a website for [X]" will actually be possible for 100% of prompts, but we're not there yet.
@innka Thanks for the kind words! Honestly, sometimes the answers are too long and not "straight to the point" (something I need to work on) but I agree with everything else :)
@konrad_sx We use multiple AIs to combine the responses, but it includes the top models from OpenAI and Google.
The images and videos are from Google image and video search, while the charts and other elements are created with our own AI engine, which intelligently combines JavaScript libraries (Chart.js, Mermaid JS, Highlight.js, etc.).
@jason_chernofsky You can always use Ithy for free! Or if you want access to multiple premium models, we charge a small monthly fee for unlimited answers.
We use this money to pay for all the different AIs we use, which gets expensive for us.
@super_gaming_live_hd Thanks! For the Markdown, you'll have to manually select-all (Ctrl-A on Windows or Cmd-A on Mac) then copy (Ctrl-C on Windows or Cmd-C on Mac).

Bro, this is insanely cool! I just tried it, and honestly, if you take this to market, it’s going to boom! Preplexity is nothing compared to this. I’m a developer, and the way it generated the article blew my mind.
Also, if you have any web or app-related work, I’d love to collaborate. I’m looking to connect and work with like-minded people

@andy_lim Thanks Andy! The aggregation logic involves "thinking" (similar to reasoning LLMs) to determine unique perspectives and points of consensus. I have a more detailed writeup on Medium: https://medium.com/@winson.luk/what-happens-when-you-combine-deepseek-r1-with-openai-o1-6a89a315ab43

@wluk It's worth a try. Thanks for doing that.
Just tried it, I have to say it's incredible! The quality, the structure, deep research, straight to the point. Thanks!

@konrad_sx Wow that's embarrassing...that's what we get for debuting at #1! (the traffic brought our site down 😅)
We've updated our servers, and we should be back up now (try a hard-refresh of your browser)

Congrats to the team on the launch!

Thank you@dan16! The team is just me (1 person) right now, but I owe a lot to our community for ideas and support.
this is awesome, how do costs work considering the various providers?
