A launch is the first day a model was publicly available, previews included; a family's sizes released together count once, and later dated updates of a model are left out. Main lines are checked by hand against the provider's own changelog or announcement where we could read it ("Provider"), otherwise a reference page ("Reference"); the rest come from Epoch AI's model data (CC BY 4.0).
