What the data says
Benchmarked on 18 of 27 tracked axes. Every figure below is the model's own published result on that board.
Strongest axes
- 100 pct — Terminal-Bench (84.7%)
- 99.7 pct — LiveBench (79.9%)
- 96.5 pct — Factuality Arena (1,486)
Uneven: 43.8 percentile points between its best and worst axis — 100 pct on Terminal-Bench versus 56.2 pct on HHEM Hallucination (Vectara).

Percentiles are the model's standing within each board's own population. Axes marked "not benchmarked" have no published result for this model — that is an absence of data, not a low score.

gpt-5.5-high stands at 80.2 (raw mean 85.2) — measured on 18 of 27 axes.
gpt-5.5-high stands at 80.2 versus a cohort median of 60.3 across 176 models released within 180 days — above the peer median.
gpt-5.5-high scores in the 100th percentile on Terminal-Bench.
gpt-5.5-high scores at percentile 99.7 on LiveBench.
gpt-5.5-high ranks between #9 and #34 across 6 built-in weightings — best under "Agentic", worst under "All-rounder".
Every claim is a computed fact from the current board data, phrased by a low-temperature model call and rejected by a validation gate if any number is not in the source row. How the leaderboards work →
