Benchmarks: 78 of 190 measured

The tick on a coding bar is the median of every model measured on it. Outside coding, the place is this model's rank on that board. A board that never ran the model says so.

Where it stands

What it costs

A list price says what a token costs. The cost per solved task says what a working answer costs, which is the number that decides.
