|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Arena Elo Human blind-vote Elo from LMArena — the closest proxy to 'which model feels smarter'. | 1572 | 1558 | 1560 | 1564 | 1539 |
AA Index Artificial Analysis' composite Intelligence Index across reasoning, math and coding. | 72.0 | 71.0 | 74.0 | 70.0 | 69.0 |
LiveBench Contamination-resistant benchmark refreshed monthly — a strong signal of raw capability. | 84.6 | 83.8 | 82.4 | 82.9 | 81.9 |
GPQA Graduate-level science QA. Above 70% is frontier reasoning territory. | 91.2% | 90.4% | 84.1% | 89.7% | 88.9% |
MMLU-Pro Broad knowledge across 57 subjects — the classic capability floor. | 91.4% | 90.9% | 91.5% | 90.1% | 89.6% |
SWE-Bench Real-world GitHub bug-fixing. The single best proxy for agentic coding. | 82.1% | 80.3% | 72.4% | 78.8% | 77.4% |
Terminal-Bench End-to-end shell tasks. Measures tool-use and long-horizon execution. | 59.8% | 57.2% | 58.2% | 56.1% | 55.5% |
ARC-AGI Abstract reasoning puzzles. Historically brutal — even small gains matter. | 23.8% | 22.7% | 46.0% | 22.1% | 20.8% |
Aider Polyglot Multi-language code editing benchmark. Signals practical dev-loop quality. | 88.4% | 86.9% | 78.1% | 85.6% | 84.8% |
Context Maximum input tokens. Bigger unlocks whole-codebase and long-doc workflows. | 1.0M | 1.0M | 1.1M | 500K | 1.0M |
Speed (tok/s) Output tokens per second. Matters for interactive UIs and long generations. | 42 | 55 | 92 | 76 | 91 |
Input $/1M Cost per million input tokens. | $10.00 | $3.00 | $5.00 | $2.00 | $0.43 |
Output $/1M Cost per million output tokens. | $50.00 | $15.00 | $30.00 | $6.00 | $0.87 |

Kimi K3 is a 2.8T parameter open-weight multimodal reasoning model from Moonshot AI. It is suited for complex coding, knowledge work, and long-horizon agentic workflows, and is particularly strong at...
GPT-5.6 Sol is the flagship model in OpenAI's GPT-5.6 series. It is suited for complex reasoning, coding, and agentic workflows, and is particularly strong at command-line and multi-step coding tasks...
Grok 4.5 is SpaceXAI's smartest model with frontier performance on coding, knowledge work, and STEM.
DeepSeek V4 Pro is a large-scale Mixture-of-Experts model from DeepSeek with 1.6T total parameters and 49B activated parameters, supporting a 1M-token context window. It is designed for advanced reasoning, coding,...
Optimize for SWE-Bench and Terminal-Bench. Aider Polyglot is the tiebreaker for real dev-loop quality.
GPQA and ARC-AGI matter more than MMLU. A high Arena Elo helps for open-ended prompts.
Filter by context window first (200K+ for full-repo work), then compare LiveBench to avoid quality drop-off.
Input and output $/1M dominate at scale. Sort by price, then take the highest AA Index still in budget.
