# Choose the workspace's models

Choose the workspace's models [#choose-the-workspaces-models]

The **Models** page decides which of the deployment's models people can use in this workspace.

You need a role with **Manage Workspace Settings**, such as **Admin**. Open **Settings** > **Models** under **Workspace · "*name*"**.

Restrict the workspace's models [#restrict-the-workspaces-models]

**Restrict models** is off in a new workspace: everyone can use every model on their plan, including models added to the deployment later.

1. Turn **Restrict models** on. Every model stays on.
2. Turn the switch next to a model off to remove it from the workspace, or on to bring it back. Each change applies at once.

* While **Restrict models** is on, models added to the deployment later start off here until you turn them on.
* The last model that is on cannot be turned off: keep one, or turn off **Restrict models**.
* Turning **Restrict models** off asks first, because it clears your selection: every model is available again.
* **Blocked by your organization** marks a model your organization blocked. Only an organization admin can unblock it. See [Block models for an organization](/docs/platform/admin/organization/models).
* Where a model has an **i** next to its name, it shows how the model compares on intelligence and speed.

Which models the deployment offers is up to your Alomana administrator. For choosing a model in a chat, see [Models](/docs/platform/chat/models).

To set the workspace's models with an API key, see [Manage workspaces](/docs/api/workspaces/manage-workspaces) in the API documentation.
