Suggested comparisons

The models a buyer weighs against GPT-6 Astra, picked on list price and on Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index of overall quality. Add one to draw it beside GPT-6 Astra.

GPT-6 AstraOpenAIThis page, always on the chart

Among the 40 current releases on this chart, GPT-6 Astra ranks first of 28 on Math, second of 24 on Science and second of 24 on Multimodal. Computer use is Meta's run on OSWorld 2.1, marked on the chart. Instruction following: not yet published by OpenAI or any independent evaluator, checked Nov 2, 2026.

Each axis is one public benchmark at one setting, on its own fixed 0 to 100 scale, so adding a model never moves another. A dotted bridge crosses a missing result, which is never a zero. A hollow mark is a result from another source: the maker's own figure or another lab's run, where the benchmark's usual source has not tested the model yet. The readout names it.

  • GPT-6 Astra, at max effort, writes 71 output tokens per second on OpenAI's API, and its first token arrives 269 s after the request. Artificial Analysis, Oct 28, 2026.
  • Fastest on the chart is the shortest time to a 500-token answer: time to first token plus 500 tokens at the median output speed.

Every model with a result, axis by axis

57 models. A maker's own figure and another lab's run are marked with their benchmark; a missing result reads "Not yet published", never zero.

The result of every model GILD has benchmark results for, on each of the 12 axes. A vendor-reported value is marked. A model's run notes open under its row from its name, each with the axes it covers.

Prices by route

The lowest standard rate is OpenAI API, at $10 / $50 per million input and output tokens. US dollars per million tokens, as each route lists them, one row per route and rate plan, cheapest standard rate first after the maker's own; a blended rate states its mix. OpenRouter's endpoints follow under one heading, each with its monitor's uptime over 1 day and 30 minutes and the context and output it serves.
