How we test & rank
Each model is scored on real tasks across 4 task areas by an LLM judge with deterministic checks. "Percentile" is this model's standing within each area's field; the cross-area figures are rank-based so quality and Elo scores are never mixed.
This page is Spring Prompt, running
We just did this for every model. Do it for your prompt.
The rankings above come from running real tasks through real models and scoring every output. Spring Prompt is that same engine — pointed at your prompt, your test cases, and your definition of good.
- Generate test cases from your prompt — no eval set required to start.
- Compare models side by side with quality, cost and latency in one matrix.
- Optimise the winner until the scores say it's ready to ship.
