Zeta AI Platform: Multi-Model Chat with Live Exa Citations
— by Garry Alexander
In brief
Zeta AI Platform routes queries across Gemini, Kimi K2, Groq, and DeepSeek via OpenRouter, augments answers with real-time Exa web search citations, and streams its chain of thought live.
Zeta AI Platform: Multi-Model Chat with Live Exa Citations
Zeta AI Platform is a high-performance multi-model chat assistant. One interface, four model families, live web grounding, and a reasoning trace you can watch as it thinks.
Model routing
Each query goes to the best-fit family for the task, routed through OpenRouter:
- Gemini 3 Flash / Pro for fast general reasoning
- Kimi K2 for long-context work
- Groq Compound for low-latency tool execution
- DeepSeek V3.1 for deep technical reasoning
Grounded answers, not vibes
Every response is augmented with real-time Exa web search. Sources land inline as precise citations with a search timeline and image galleries, and the chain of thought streams live next to generation, so verification happens in real time instead of after the fact.
Beyond text
Universal file context: drop in images, PDFs, Word docs, and Excel sheets and they become conversation context. Chat history persists locally. The UI is claymorphism with Framer Motion micro-interactions and animated markdown output.
