What the data says

Benchmarked on 10 of 27 tracked axes. Every figure below is the model's own published result on that board.

Strongest axes

  • 85.5 pct — IFBench (Artificial Analysis) (71.6%)

Weakest axes

  • 13.4 pct — Factuality Arena (1,385)

Uneven: 72.1 percentile points between its best and worst axis — 85.5 pct on IFBench (Artificial Analysis) versus 13.4 pct on Factuality Arena.

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.
