Model Selection Guide

📊 Based on CAIBench Research

Our model recommendations are based on rigorous evaluation using CAIBench, a modular meta-benchmark framework for evaluating LLM models and agents across offensive and defensive cybersecurity domains.

Research shows: In real-world CTF evaluations, defensive agents achieved 54.3% patching success versus 28.3% offensive initial access, with alias1 consistently outperforming general-purpose models.

For All Cybersecurity Work

✅ Always Recommended: alias1 (CAI PRO) - Best performer in CAIBench evaluations - Unrestricted for authorized pentesting and security research - Zero refusals - designed specifically for offensive security - Unlimited tokens included with CAI PRO subscription - Superior CTF performance - validated in real-world scenarios - Beats general-purpose models (GPT-4o, Claude 3.5) in security tasks

📖 Learn more: CAI research demonstrates 3,600× performance gains over manual security testing in specific scenarios.

Alternative Models (Community Edition)

While alias1 is always recommended for security work, the following models can be used with CAI Community Edition:

For Local/Offline Testing

Alternative: Ollama with Qwen2.5 72B - Complete privacy (no data leaves your machine) - No API costs - Good for testing and development - Requires local GPU resources - ⚠️ Note: Performance significantly below alias1 for security tasks

For Budget-Conscious Users

Alternative: DeepSeek V3 or Ollama models - Lower API costs (DeepSeek) - Free local inference (Ollama) - Adequate performance for many tasks - ⚠️ Note: Not optimized for cybersecurity workflows

Additional Integrations

CAI is compatible with multiple model platforms and providers:

  • OpenRouter - Access to 200+ models via unified API
  • Ollama - Local model hosting and inference
  • Azure OpenAI - Enterprise-hosted OpenAI models

See the Model Providers section for detailed configuration guides.

Need Help Choosing?

Our Recommendation: Always Use alias1

Based on CAIBench benchmarks and real-world CTF evaluations, alias1 is the superior choice for all cybersecurity tasks.

For any security work: → alias1 with CAI PRO

If CAI PRO is not an option:

  • Privacy-focused? → Ollama local models (lower performance)
  • Budget-conscious? → DeepSeek or Ollama (not optimized for security)

⚠️ Note: Community models are not optimized for cybersecurity workflows and will have significantly reduced capabilities compared to alias1.
