Useful Tools Guide
Learn about the Useful Tools page on the GIIP platform, a collection of handy utilities you can use right away without logging in.
📋 Overview
Useful Tools is a page that gathers calculators and utilities for day-to-day infrastructure work in one place. It is accessible to guests without logging in, and clicking any tool card takes you straight to that tool's page.
🔧 Available Tools
1. LLM Self-Host Calculator (/en/llm-calculator)
A tool that instantly estimates whether a given model will run on your GPU/server and whether it is cheaper than an API. It calculates VRAM fit, token generation speed, and the self-host-vs-API break-even point. Everything is computed in your browser, so no API key or sign-in is required and nothing you enter is sent to any server.
2. AI Tools Links (/en/ai-links)
A curated collection of links to external AI tools and repositories useful for agent development and design. Browse noteworthy tools at a glance and jump straight to the link you want.
3. Recommended AI Services (/en/ai-services)
A guide page listing AI services worth using in practice — from emerging tools to major players, in recommended order. Each entry shows the official page link and base public pricing (as of 2026-07).
🛠️ Tips
- Open directly: Click the [Open] button at the bottom of each tool card (or the card itself) to navigate to that tool.
- No login needed: This page and its tools are available to guests. Try the features first without an account.
💡 Important Notes
- This page currently exposes the three tools above. When new tools are added, their cards appear here automatically.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Tool cards are not visible | The page has not finished loading or the network is slow | Refresh the page and check again. |
| Clicking a card does nothing | Script blocking in the browser or a temporary error | Refresh the browser or try a different browser. |
| Tool text appears in another language | The locale code in the URL differs from your desired language | Change the /en/ part of the address to your preferred language code. |
| LLM calculation results are not saved | Calculations run only in the browser and are not stored on any server | This is expected behavior. Record the on-screen values yourself if you need them. |
