AI Models with Tool Calling

Tool calling is the difference between a chatbot and an agent. Every model here can emit structured calls to your functions, but reliability varies widely, especially on nested or parallel calls, and the spec table will not tell you that. Treat this list as the shortlist of candidates, then test the ones that fit your budget against your actual tool schema.
