Instead of choosing the model, the user chooses the effort level (Standard, High or Max), and Fusion orchestrates models in Single, Cascade or Critique flows. On the AA Coding Agent Index, Fusion Max scored 60, two points behind Claude Code with Opus 5.5 Max, at about half the average cost per task, half the tokens and 40% less time. Administrators control which models it can use.
