Ideal für: Reasoning
Ranked on MMLU-Pro, GPQA, and AIME. Price is a tiebreaker — reasoning quality dominates for reasoning-heavy work.

Podium
So werten wir
Reasoning workloads — math, logic, science, multi-step planning — reward the top-tier frontier models disproportionately. The gap between the best and second-best can be a 20-point accuracy swing. We weight reasoning benchmarks heavily and use price only as a tiebreaker.

Field notes
Turn on native reasoning mode if the model offers it — the accuracy gains are real.
Reasoning mode costs more tokens. Budget accordingly.
Ensemble a cheap model + a reasoning model behind a router to control cost.
