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.

Benchmark performance

accuracy % · higher is better
Percentile vs all tracked models 31.7th2 independent measurements
Percentile per $/Mtok 31.7

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
