A context window is the total conversation budget, not a separate maximum input allowance; generated output and reasoning can use that budget. Published provider limits are not independently tested TokenRex request limits.

Versions and thinking levels

One enabled version is currently listed for this model.

Features and tool support

TokenRex’s exposed interface, not every feature advertised by the provider. “Available” describes the implemented interface, not a successful test of every input or tool.

Input through TokenRex

Available

Audio file upload (MP3, WAV, M4A and more, up to 25 MiB) on POST /v1/audio/transcriptions.

Output through TokenRex

Available

Transcript JSON, or words streamed live with stream=true (tested, including Hindi).

Function tools

Not exposed

Transcription endpoint only — it returns text and does not run tools.

Sources and verification

Provider specifications describe the upstream model, not a guarantee of every feature through TokenRex. Prices come from the enabled catalog; benchmark results belong to the exact tested model.
