Vision Capabilities Comparison

Not all chat models handle image analysis the same way. Magicdoor supports vision on most chat models, but the best choice depends on whether you care most about speed, cost, long-document handling, or deeper analysis.

Good starting options for vision tasks

• Claude Sonnet 5.5: strong general-purpose image analysis

• GPT-6.1 Sol: strong general-purpose image analysis with OpenAI workflow

• GPT-6 Luna: lower-cost option for simpler image tasks

• Claude Haiku 5.5: supports PDF and vision inputs; check the specific task and output

• Claude Opus 5.5: premium option for harder visual analysis

• Grok 4.7: another current vision-capable option in the lineup

GLM-5.3 does not support vision in the current Magicdoor registry.

Cost-aware workflow

1. Start with Claude Haiku 5.5 or GPT-6 Luna for the first pass.
2. If the task needs more depth, switch to Claude Sonnet 5.5 or GPT-6.1 Sol.

That is the main advantage of Magicdoor's multi-model setup: you do not have to guess one perfect model up front.
