- Middle
- Behind the leaders
- Not enough data
Ratings compare only the 77 models listed here, in quarters, best first. “Not enough data” means no result yet. It is never a low score.

Evidence completeness: Broad evidence, 12 of 13 tests have a result.
Where it is relatively stronger or weaker
This compares each kind of request with the model's own overall position among the 77 listed models, using Arena's votes. It is about performance on different languages, kinds of request and topics, not about political or social bias.
Relatively stronger
No category stands out as clearly stronger than its overall position.
Relatively weaker
No category stands out as clearly weaker than its overall position.

Bias: what we can and can't see
Our sources do not measure political lean, stereotyping, flattery (agreeing with you too readily) or safety behaviour, so we cannot say how any model does on those. What we can show is above: where a model is relatively stronger or weaker across languages, kinds of request and topics. Also, people voting in Arena can favour answer style, such as length and formatting, and our numbers do not adjust for that. See what AI bias means and what these tests can tell you.
Best-supported use cases
This model is not among the options we recommend for any of the five tasks. That reflects the rules and the models listed, not a verdict on the model.

We have not verified an official product page for this model, so we do not link to one.
How you can use it
Proprietary. The model's files are not published, so it is generally available only through its maker or partners the maker chooses.
How you can reach it (an app, a website, a developer API or a third-party tool) and what that costs are not covered by our benchmark data. Where we could verify prices from the maker's own pages, they are shown under Price. Epoch AI lists access as “API access”. See models, apps and harnesses and how AI pricing works.
Price
Price not independently verified
See Grok (checked 29 Oct 2026). Page opened and read. It says Grok is 'free to try on the web and in the apps' and that SuperGrok adds higher limits. It states no prices or model names. The separate plans page opens as a sign-up pop-up showing introductory offers and no model names, so we record nothing else.
We never infer subscription prices from API prices. New to “tokens” and “per million”? See how AI pricing works.
Good to remember
- Benchmarks are samples of tasks. None proves performance in every situation.
- Arena scores come from people choosing between answers. That measures preference, not correctness.
- Ratings are relative to the 77 models listed here. A different set would change them.
- Sources test models at different settings. Each result shows the setting used, and we do not adjust it.

Missing evidence
Not enough data for these tests:
- SWE-bench Verified (Epoch runs)
Missing results are not low scores and do not count against the model.
Where a source gives no public run log, we cannot show the run behind the score. See data sources.
