# Create a Deka LLM

This section explains how to create a Deka LLM for the SME project type in the **Service Portal AI**. On the **Service Portal AI** page, open the **LLM** menu from the left navigation panel. The LLM page displays the list of available Large Language Models. If no LLM has been created, an empty state message appears. Click **Create LLM** to start creating a new Deka LLM.

The **Select Models** section is used to select one or more models for the LLM. This section displays a list of available models, and more than one model can be selected. To help narrow down the list of models, the following options are available:

* **Search Models**\
  Filters the model list based on the entered keyword.
* **Filter by type**\
  Filters the model list based on the selected model type.
* **Quick Presets**\
  Filters the model list based on predefined categories.

The available model types include:

<table><thead><tr><th width="169.33331298828125">Column</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Chat</td><td>Functions to display models designed for interactive conversations.</td></tr><tr><td>Code</td><td>Functions to display models optimized for programming. This type of model is used for code generation, debugging, code explanation, or assisting developer tasks.</td></tr><tr><td>Vision</td><td>Functions to display models capable of processing figures/images.</td></tr><tr><td>Embedding</td><td>Functions to display models that generate vector representations of text. These are used for semantic search, recommendations, clustering, or integration with vector databases.</td></tr></tbody></table>

After the model list is filtered, models can be selected directly from the displayed list. Selected models are marked accordingly.
