Weighted consensus · Public benchmarks

LLM leaderboard

Compare AI models across public benchmarks. Source-balanced consensus for overall performance, coding, reasoning and agentic work.

Looking for which LLM is best? UnifyBench is a first stop: source-balanced consensus across many published benchmarks (not one board). Shortlist here, then validate on Artificial Analysis, check Arena for preference, and finish with task-specific evals.

Capability, within your budget. Compare the same scores using a shared cost basis.

Token counts for price scenarios

Output includes reasoning. Fixed token counts compare prices; they do not measure task efficiency.

Cost coverage and methodology

Capability scores stay unchanged. Lower cost breaks exact score ties; no score-to-price ratio is used. Small score gaps do not establish superiority.

0 of 444 supported configurations have comparable costs. Unknown costs and over-budget entries remain visible without a Value rank. Prices collected 2026-09-22; comparisons expire after 30 days.

USD per weighted AA v4.3 task, including reasoning, cache treatment and reviewed fallback routing. This workload does not represent every task. Cost evidence currently comes from Artificial Analysis only. Cost frontier, components and gaps ↗ · Value methodology

The price collection needs refreshing. Value ranks are suspended; Capability remains available.

    This month: three boards to compare

    Which LLM is best in October 2026?

    The dated checks below show different measures of performance: GPT-6 Astra · XHigh leads UnifyBench; Claude Opus 5.5 (Max, Default Fallback) leads Artificial Analysis; Gemini 4 Argon · High is Arena's last known leader. Shortlist with UnifyBench, check Artificial Analysis for independent scores and cost per task, check Arena for preferences, then test your own tasks.

    The Intelligence Index, Arena Elo, and UnifyBench score use different scales and cannot be compared directly. UnifyBench balances many published benchmarks rather than blending a few board ranks. Why leaderboards disagree.

    What does the score mean?

    The adjusted comparison score estimates performance against the same reference panel from matched published comparisons. Capability pools matched comparisons across families and checks aggregate breadth and independent source coverage. Custom profiles require support in every selected capability. Missing results never count as losses.

    Family details show observed win shares against available reference peers. Those descriptive values are supporting evidence, not adjusted capability scores. Provider reports and independent results remain labeled. Matching reported settings do not establish equal inference effort, and score differences do not establish statistical significance.
