THE DECISION
What this comparison means
Quality for your agents focus
1 current independent evaluations use matching versions, methods, and test settings across every selected model. These show performance on the named tests; they do not establish a universal best model.
All selected models tie on LiveBench javascript

Different benchmarks test different tasks. Effort levels are shown because they can affect results and cost. Verification dates indicate when we checked a source; they are not necessarily evaluation dates.
Your estimated monthly API cost
Enter usage in millions of tokens. Estimates use the listed standard input and output prices in USD.

This estimates API token charges. Subscription plans, caching, batch discounts, tools, taxes, and differences in tokens used per task can change the bill. Cost alone does not establish equivalent quality.
