Benchmarks that represent this job 4

A model's row on one of these third-party boards is what earns the measured label; the same benchmark name in the model's own card earns author-reported.

Narrow by what you can run and pay for. Rows are ordered measured → author-reported → structural, then by watch-list score; click a column to re-sort. Every chip links to its source.

How to read this

  • measured a third-party leaderboard row for this model. Settings (agent harness, edit format, prompt) differ between boards; compare within a benchmark, not across.
  • author-reported a number the model author published in the card or eval files. Not reproduced by us.
  • structural a deterministic signal from the name, config or chat template, or a decision-model estimate. A weak signal: it says the model was built or tagged for the job, not how well it does it. "decision-model estimate" chips are a probability from the Jev decision model, not a measurement.
  • Runs on is the memory class of the BF16 weights (method); choosing a class shows that class and smaller. Quantized builds may fit a class lower.
  • Price from is the cheapest observed hosted input price, USD per million tokens; models with no observed price are hidden when a ceiling is set. License friction: permissive = none or attribution-only; high = non-commercial.
  • Ordering within a tier is the watch-list score (Hub likes, downloads, recency), not a quality verdict.
