Meet Rishi
Best for hard multi-step reasoning, research, media.
Rishi plans, executes, and then verifies its own work across long multi-step runs, which is why it is slower and why it costs the most per token. It is the only model that accepts video as input and generates video. Reach for it when being wrong is expensive — research you intend to act on, a migration you are about to run, an analysis someone will make a decision from — and let the other two carry everything else.

RishiOne of Upfyn's own frontier models.
Rishi plans, does the work, then checks it
The only model that watches video
It makes video too
Plans, executes, then checks
Rishi works across long multi-step runs: it plans the work, carries it out, and verifies the result before you see it. That is why it is slower, and why it costs the most per token.

Research you intend to act on
Reach for Rishi when a plausible wrong answer is the failure: research you mean to act on, an analysis someone will decide from, a change you are about to run. Let Bala and Yuva carry everything else.
