Where it stands among the models you could choose
Available models grouped by price, intelligence, speed and developer location. Retired models are excluded.
| Among | Intelligence Index | Spring Prompt overall | Price, blended | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Models available today | – | 15th of 33Claude Fable 5.2 | $8.00 blended, 92nd percentilecheapest: Mistral Nemo | – |

The name under each rank is the leader of that group; green is the top quarter of the group and red the bottom quarter, by rank. Price is shown as a percentile: the share of the group that costs less, so lower is cheaper. "Sets this group" marks the measure the group is defined by. Spring Prompt overall is our score out of 100 across every source (how it works). Price is the developer's list price (or the typical OpenRouter host where we haven't read one) for three input tokens to one output; intelligence and speed are from Artificial Analysis (data sourced from Artificial Analysis); "similar intelligence" means within 4 points on its Intelligence Index. Developer locations are where each company is based, not where a model is served. Groups under 3 models are not ranked.

Cheapest model that passes
On our benchmarks that define a pass for each task: what one passing answer cost in our run, failed attempts included, and whether a cheaper model passed.
- CatalogBench · cost per 1,000 accepted listings
Gemini 4 Carbon passed 117 of 168 attempts, with no estimate: failed-call costs incomplete. Cheapest: GPT-6 Luna at $0.70 (114 of 168 attempts). - DeckBench · cost per presentable deck
Gemini 4 Carbon: $0.98 (1 of 6 tasks), 9 of 12. Cheapest: GPT-6.1 Terra at $0.13 (3 of 6 tasks). It passed at least as often. - SurveyBench · cost per sound survey task
Gemini 4 Carbon: $2.78 (1 of 9 tasks), 9 of 10. Cheapest: GPT-6 Luna at $0.03 (3 of 9 tasks). It passed at least as often.
Cost per attempt divided by the share that passed, at the run date's prices, excluding judging. Each model at its cheapest setting per passing answer. With a handful of tasks, a pass or two either way is within chance. No estimate where a run had missing outputs, because their cost may not have been recorded.
How good is it, and for what?
Each use case ranks the available models its benchmarks measured, then those priced $3–10 per million tokens. The bar shows its percentile in that field, best to the right. Open a row for the results behind it.
