Independent model comparison
Compare the models using only evidence that can be identified and attributed. Exact benchmark matches appear first; independent facts and user reports remain separate and do not create an overall ranking.

Primary comparison evidence
A shared benchmark name is not enough. A result appears side by side only when both model records carry the same reviewed comparison key. Duplicate or unversioned records are omitted rather than guessed into alignment.

Mean prediction score
This benchmark is not on a weekly live cadence yet. The table and charts reflect a single multi-model comparison on one forecast window—a pilot snapshot, not an updating leaderboard. The evaluation setup (clustering, prompts, automated judge, and scoring checks) is still being refined; reported scores and details may change as we improve the pipeline.

OpenHands SWE-Bench resolved
Scores are official OpenHands SWE-Bench resolved percentages for exact OpenHands and model configurations, not bare-model scores or SpringPrompt predictions. Twenty-nine exact task sidecars support marginal 95% bootstrap score intervals; five rows explicitly have no interval. No full-cohort rank confidence is claimed.

Secondary context · not head-to-head
The sources below evaluated or discussed each model independently. Putting them in adjacent columns makes them easier to inspect, but it does not make their metrics, samples, or observations directly comparable.
Anecdotal model-level reports
Recurring themes from each model's declared observation window. They are not a representative survey and are not direct comparisons between these models.
No editor-reviewed Reddit opinions paragraph is active for this model snapshot.
Initial community opinions
In the search-indexed launch-window sample, Gemini 3.1 Pro appeared to improve long outputs, context retention, coding, and interface generation. Recurring reservations involved weak autonomous tool use, lengthy planning, flattery, inconsistent instruction following, and large differences between AI Studio, the consumer chat product, and Antigravity. Capability looked promising while agent reliability remained unsettled.

Independent early-test reports
Editor-paraphrased reports from independent authors in each model's fixed 14-day launch window. These selectively surfaced anecdotes are not direct head-to-head tests unless they also appear in the dedicated direct-report section above.
No editor-reviewed X field-test paragraph is active for this model snapshot.
Early technical field tests
Early Gemini 3.1 Pro reports were strongly harness-dependent. An overnight OpenCode run on a large production monorepo described sustained tool use, few tool failures, useful clarification behavior, and capable interface work. A separate production integration found speed and design strengths but inconsistent instruction and tool-schema adherence. The safest conclusion is high raw capability with uneven agent reliability between hosts.

X field tests remain separate from Reddit community opinions, Artificial Analysis facts, and every scored benchmark.
Spring Prompt does not name an overall winner from unrelated benchmark scores, third-party metrics, Reddit opinions, or X field-test reports.
Different benchmarks measure different constructs and may use different populations, prompts, harnesses, model revisions, tools, and score scales. This page does not average those values or infer a winner from source coverage. Test both models on your own production work before making a consequential choice.
