Methodology
Composite score = round((tape × 0.55 + fundamentals × 0.30 + cost_index × 0.15) × 1000)
- Tape (55%) — Fast-moving market signal built from Chatbot Arena text/code plus Artificial Analysis. Arena text carries 65% of the arena blend, code 35%, then that arena composite gets blended 60/40 with the AA Intelligence Index.
- Fundamentals (30%) — Slower benchmark layer built from Terminal Bench, LiveBench, a demoted legacy coding/Tau fallback, and a light AA capability proxy. Trust penalties and freshness decay hit each source before the blend.
- Cost Idx (15%) — Cost efficiency 0–1. 1 = cheapest, 0 = most expensive. Blended cost = input 25% + output 75%, min-max normalized across all tracked models. Sourced from OpenRouter.
Column glossary
- Score — Composite score 0–1000. Higher is better.
- Text ELO — Raw Arena text leaderboard ELO.
- Code ELO — Raw Arena code leaderboard ELO.
- Tape — Fast, community-sensitive score from Arena plus Artificial Analysis.
- Fund — Slower benchmark score from Terminal Bench, LiveBench, and lower-weight fallback fundamentals.
- Cost Idx — Cost efficiency index 0–1. 1 = best value in the current tracked set.
- $/M in — Input cost per 1 million tokens (USD), via OpenRouter.
- $/M out — Output cost per 1 million tokens (USD), via OpenRouter.
- Ctx — Context window size (max tokens the model can process in one request).
- ★★★ — No full-component fallback used. ★★☆ — 1 component imputed. ★☆☆ — 2 components imputed.
