## Nothing is both better and cheaper.

Under a balanced workload, no other model in the catalogue scores higher *and* costs less. This model is on the value frontier.

### Every price dimension

| Input | $0.049 /M |
| --- | --- |
| Output | $0.098 /M |

**Price varies by time of day.** Listed rate is the PEAK rate. Off-peak is 50% lower ($0.22 input / $0.007 cache hit / $0.66 output).

### Independent scores

| Intelligence | 42.1 |
| --- | --- |
| Coding | 56.2 |
| Agentic | 33.7 |

Sources are listed separately rather than averaged. Across the 62 models both have scored they correlate at r = 0.806 — close agreement overall, but four models rank very differently between them, and a blended score would hide exactly those.
