Where each one wins

Tests won in each of the four 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.

Agents, reasoning and following instructions rest on a single test each.

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.

Questions people ask

Which is better, Claude 3 Haiku or GPT-4?

Claude 3 Haiku wins two of the four areas where both have results: reasoning and following instructions. GPT-4 wins facts. They are level on agents.

Which is cheaper?

Claude 3 Haiku costs $0.25 per million input tokens and $1.25 per million output tokens; GPT-4 costs $30.00 and $60.00. That makes Claude 3 Haiku about 98% cheaper for the same work.

How do you compare the two?

We use the 18 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 5 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 13 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.
