What you see

  1. Compare models with one prompt

    Send the same prompt to up to three models at once and read their replies side by side.

  2. Speed and cost per reply

    Time to first token, tokens per second and the charge for each run.

  3. Real requests

    Each run is a real API request on one of your keys.

  4. Nothing stored

    Prompts and replies are gone when you leave the page.

When to use it

  1. Picking a model for a new agent

    Run a real prompt on two or three candidates before you commit.

  2. Checking a cheaper model

    Put it next to the one you pay for. Compare the answers and the charge.

  3. Trying a newly added model

    Run your own prompt on it before you change your code.

Playground questions

Is the playground free?

No. Each run is a real request at the model's list price.

Can I see the cost before I send?

Yes. The playground quotes the cost before the run goes out.

Are my prompts saved?

No. Hopscotch never stores prompts or responses by default. Leaving the page clears them.

Do I need an API key?

Yes. Each run uses one of your workspace keys, so its spend shows on that key. A workspace with no keys creates one first.
