Choose a practical model and stack for what you are building.

The Model Builder Wizard turns a handful of plain questions — what you are building, where you want it to run, and what matters most — into a concrete starting plan: a suggested model direction, a runtime to try, and a stack to pair it with. It is built for beginners and builders who know what they want to make but are not sure which of the dozens of open-weight models and tools to start with. Read the result as a shortlist, not a verdict. The plain-English plan tells you where to begin, and the optional technical summary gives developers the specifics to validate. Nothing here is a benchmark — treat the recommendation as the fastest way to narrow the field before you download and test locally.
