Benchmarks

preference

Chatbot Arena EloFresh
Elo

Crowdsourced pairwise human preference rankings of LLM responses. Higher Elo means more frequently preferred by users.

performance

Output SpeedN/A
tok/s

Median output speed in tokens per second over the last 14 days on the model maker's own API, measured nightly with a fixed ~800-token prompt and ~250-token answer. Models not yet probed fall back to a dated manual figure. Higher is faster.

Time to First TokenN/A
ms

Median time from request to first streamed token in milliseconds over the last 14 days on the model maker's own API, using the same nightly probe prompt. Lower is snappier; reasoning models are penalised here because they think before talking.

agentic

Terminal-Bench 2Fresh
%

Long-horizon shell-and-filesystem tasks executed in a sandboxed terminal, scored by whether the agent's final state matches a target state. Tests practical tool-using ability for everyday devops and data-wrangling work; one of the hardest agentic benchmarks today.

reliability

API Success RateN/A
%

Share of nightly probe requests over the last 14 days that streamed a complete answer without an error, timeout or empty response. Needs at least five attempts before a figure is shown.
