FAQ

Common questions about the llm leaderboard

What is the best LLM right now?

Based on coding-arena performance — the most discriminating signal at the frontier — Claude Opus 4.6 currently leads. For knowledge-heavy reasoning (GPQA Diamond), Claude Mythos Preview scores highest. Choose by axis rather than a single ranking — see the highlights above for per-metric leaders.

How does the LLM Leaderboard rank models?

Models are sorted by coding-arena score (when available), then by GPQA Diamond. Each row aggregates verified benchmark results, provider-reported pricing, and live performance metrics (output throughput and time-to-first-token) sampled across the major API providers. See the LLM Stats Score methodology for the full weighting and refresh cadence.

How many models are tracked?

This leaderboard tracks 316 canonical models across every major lab and provider. New releases typically appear within hours.

Where does pricing data come from?

Per-model input/output pricing is pulled from each provider's public API price list and verified against billing samples from the LLM Stats proxy. When a model is hosted by multiple providers, the cheapest available rate is shown by default.

How is performance measured?

Output throughput (tokens/second) and time-to-first-token are measured by routing standardized prompts through each provider's API and averaging over a 7-day rolling window. Numbers update hourly. Per-model splits live on each model detail page.

How often does the data update?

Pricing and model metadata revalidate every hour. Live performance metrics update on a 7-day rolling average. Benchmark scores update when a new verified result is published or a new evaluation lands on LLM Stats.
