What the data says

Benchmarked on 8 of 27 tracked axes. Every figure below is the model's own published result on that board.

Strongest axes

  • 85.7 pct — Coding (1,508)

Uneven: 47.5 percentile points between its best and worst axis — 85.7 pct on Coding versus 38.2 pct on Agent 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.

We don't sync Ollama tags, so we won't print a command we can't verify — a wrong one would pull the wrong model. Search the Ollama library →
