The two are evenly matched.Apodex 1.1 is better at long documents; Motif-3 at reasoning.
Scores updated · 14 tests both models report · How we compare
Where each one wins
Tests won in each of the five areas where both have results. Each piece is one test, so a longer bar means more evidence; grey means the two scored within a point of each other.

Long documents rests on a single test.
What it costs
Prices per million tokens, roughly 750,000 words. The bars show the cost of a million tokens read plus a million written.
The biggest differences
The three tests each model wins by the widest margin. Scores are out of 100.

Questions people ask
Which is better, Apodex 1.1 or Motif-3?
Apodex 1.1 and Motif-3 each win one of the five areas where both have results. Apodex 1.1 wins long documents; Motif-3 wins reasoning. They are level on coding, agents and facts.
Which is better for coding?
Neither. They win 1 coding test each of the 2 both models report.
How do you compare the two?
We use the 14 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 10 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 4 are listed but not counted, because several are summary scores or repeat a test. Each score is the one shown on the model's own page.
