Ranking criteria & test conditions
  • Intelligence scores come from the same leaderboard snapshot. Reasoning configurations remain separate; estimated scores and retired models are excluded from the highlights.
  • Release dates follow the report and are separate from our update dates. Undated models are excluded from recent releases. A report’s date is not treated as independent proof of an official model release.
  • Text prices use USD per million tokens, with input and output stored separately. Subscription, cache and media charges are not mixed into this comparison.
  • Value picks require an intelligence score of at least 30 and rank by score ÷ (3 × input price + output price) × 4, selecting the highest value for each developer. This assumes a 3:1 text input/output ratio; actual task costs vary.
  • Developer highlights show one representative per developer. Model aliases and reasoning configurations are not automatically mapped to a specific catalog version. Full results retain the original configurations and missing values.

Charts are calculated from the full report, independently of the detail page. Release activity uses release dates, not changes in model capability over time. Missing prices are not zero costs.
