How this works: Hub Score is our editorial Elo — the same set of real tasks goes to every model each month, our editors compare outputs two at a time, and the score moves as rounds complete. The +a/-b range is the confidence interval. API prices are public list prices per 1M tokens (input/output), approximate — always confirm on the vendor's page. We run this ourselves; it is not a vendor benchmark and we are not affiliated with any lab or arena.
