Understand the key concepts of Itzam.
Workflows
Workflows are the building blocks of Itzam. They represent a specific functionality in your app (e.g. a support chat, a code generator, a content writer, etc).
A Workflow contains:
- Model: The AI model you want to use (e.g. GPT-4o, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Gemini 2.5 Pro, etc).
- Prompt: The prompt you want to use to generate text (e.g. “You are a customer support agent from Acme Inc…”).
- Context: The context you want to use to generate text (e.g. company docs, company logo, links).
- Runs: The runs are the executions of a workflow. They contain the input, output, prompt, and other metadata (e.g. cost, duration, etc).
Providers
Providers are the companies that offer AI models. E.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, etc.
Models
Models are the AI models that you can use in Itzam. E.g. GPT-4o, Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Gemini 2.5 Pro, etc.
Providers tokens
Providers tokens are the tokens used to interact with the AI model. There are 2 types of providers tokens:
- Input Tokens: The tokens you send to the AI model (e.g. your prompt, the user’s message, the context).
- Output Tokens (or Completion Tokens): The tokens the AI model generates (e.g. the model’s response).
Here you can check more details about providers tokens: AI Tokens Explained.
Context
Context is the data you provide to the AI model to use to generate text. E.g. documents, images, links.
Prompt
Prompt (or System Prompt) is the instructions you provide to the AI model to use to generate text. E.g. “You are a customer support agent from Acme Inc…”.
