# Simple and Smart mode

> Two generation modes in WowWeb AI. When to pick which and what they cost.

WowWeb AI offers two generation modes with different model power. The toggle is below the input field in the builder.

## Mode comparison

Both modes can do the same things: complex animations, multi-page sites, custom typography. The difference is in approach.

| Parameter       |                        Simple                        |                          Smart                          |
| --------------- | :--------------------------------------------------: | :-----------------------------------------------------: |
| Generation time |                     \~60 seconds                     |                     \~90-120 seconds                    |
| Creation cost   |                       30-60 XP                       |                        80-150 XP                        |
| Edit cost       |                       10-25 XP                       |                         30-80 XP                        |
| Approach        | fast, but may skip small details or be less polished | works deliberately, double-checks itself, more thorough |

## When to pick Smart mode

<CardGroup cols={2}>

  </Card>

## Can I switch modes

Yes. You can switch modes on any edit. If first generation was in Simple mode, but you need a complex animation later, switch to Smart for that specific request.

<Tip>
  Hybrid strategy: build the structure in Simple mode (fast and cheap), then "polish" complex sections in Smart.
