Run it yourself

Deploy this open model on rented GPUs

Open weights mean you can self-host instead of paying per-token API prices. These platforms let you serve it on demand — often cheaper at scale.

Partner links — we may earn a commission if you sign up, at no cost to you. We only list platforms we'd recommend regardless.

Percentile vs all tracked models 33.8th2 independent measurements
Percentile per $/Mtok 24.1

We hold no per-benchmark accuracy scores for this model yet, so it has no accuracy average. That is a gap in our coverage, not a sign the model is untested — independent evaluators often publish a composite index for a new model long before releasing its per-benchmark numbers. The percentile above is its standing across the independent composites below.

Independent composite scores
  • AA-Omniscience Index: -25.4 (−100–100)
  • LMSYS Chatbot Arena: 1410.7 ELO (Human preference)
How it stacks up
  • Ranks #79 of 133 comparably-measured models by percentile score, across 2 independent measurements
  • Ranks #61 of 133 comparably-tested models by normalized performance per dollar
