THE IAedu, a digital service of the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), to be developed by FCCN, This takes a significant step in its mission to democratize access to Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Higher Education and Research in Portugal, integrating four new reference models on your platform. 

Still in its beta version, IAedu is now making the models available. GPT-5.2 from OpenAI, the DeepSeek V3.2Claude Opus 4.5 (Anthropic) and the Llama 4 Maverick From Meta. This update represents a greater diversity of tools and approaches, allowing students, researchers, teachers, and technical teams to choose the model that best meets their learning and development needs. In the case of teachers, they can even create their own customized agents.  

The artificial intelligence models available on the platform may be updated or replaced over time, according to their performance and market evolution, ensuring that IAedu always maintains the most relevant and effective solutions for the community. 

Access via API 

For API access, IAedu maintains, at this stage, the GPT-40 model, ensuring stability, consistent performance, and compatibility with existing integrations. The evolution of models available via API will be evaluated in phases, ensuring a balance between innovation, reliability, and quality of service.
