Each score is the one the model's own page shows — the most authoritative tracked result for that benchmark, on the benchmark's standard methodology (source-attributed). ↓ marks lower-is-better metrics; ◆ an independently verified score. Open either model for its full surface, provenance and pricing. Quoted rates are the price-setter row we currently track for each model — its direct or vendor-official listing where one exists (direct, direct), otherwise the lowest tracked offer.
