Every model on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index plotted against its blended API price. Models on the value frontier are the ones where nothing cheaper is also smarter; everything else is beaten on both counts by a point on the line. By default only the best variant of each model is shown and low scorers are hidden; use the filters to widen the field.
Blended cost per 1M tokens (3:1 input:output, log scale) against the Intelligence Index. Hover or tab to a point for details.
The frontier as a lookup table. Find the row your budget falls in; the pick is the highest-scoring model you can get at that price, and the runner-up is the next best that also fits.
| Budget per 1M tokens | Pick | Score | Price | Runner-up |
|---|---|---|---|---| Ignoring cost entirely.
Diff between consecutive daily fetches: new models, removed models, and re-scored or re-priced ones.
