Overview

Julius lets you choose which AI model powers your analysis. Use the Model Selector in the chat dropdown to switch between models depending on your task. Models are split into two groups: Julius models (tuned for data analysis) and General models (third-party models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google).

Julius models

Julius models are purpose-built for data work. They’re the default and the best starting point for most tasks.
ModelAvailable onBest for
Julius 1.0 LiteAll plansQuick questions and simple lookups
Julius 1.0Pro, Business, EnterpriseMost questions and everyday analysis

General models

You can also use third-party models directly. These are useful when you want a different reasoning style or want to compare outputs.

Plan availability can change. Check your workspace settings for the most current details.

Code environment

The model selector also includes your code environment settings:
  • Sandbox is the container where Julius runs code. You can reset, delete, or expand resources (RAM/CPU) from here.
  • Code language lets you switch between Python and R.
For more on containers and resource options, see Containers.

Choosing the right model

  • Start with Julius 1.0 unless you have a specific reason to switch. It’s tuned for data analysis and handles most tasks well.
  • Use Julius 1.0 Max for complex prompts that involve multiple steps or large datasets.
  • Use Julius 1.0 Lite when you need a fast answer to a simple question.
  • Try a General model for a different reasoning style, or to compare outputs across providers.
