Provisional: not enough comparable tests or counting categories to rank yet · 15 comparable tests · 2 counting categories
Drop any single test and the Index lands between 43.5 and 53.3.
Needs more results (2 of 8 so far)
Averaging 25.5 on the 2 it has; the score opens at 4 of 8.
Distance to today's frontier on the hardest tests. Not a measure of intelligence.
What it's known for
Strongest in coding (53.1) and reasoning (43.5). It trails the frontier most in reasoning, 56.5% behind on average. No comparable results yet in knowledge, multimodal and long context. Between 50% and 60% behind the best published results, on average.
Strongest category
Coding
Writing, fixing and shipping real code, judged by tests or users.
53.1
Mean of 4 of the category's 7 comparable tests. Counts toward the Index.
Best single result
Solve competition mathematics problems that have a single exact integer answer.

87.8% of the best (100.0%) · #47 of 78.
Olympiad-style problems need long, careful chains of reasoning, and there is no partial credit.
Where it trails
Infer the hidden rule from a few input and output grid pairs, then apply it to a new grid.
4.0%
95.8% behind the best published result (95.0%) · #49 of 51.
Novel visual puzzles resist memorization, so they measure fluid intelligence rather than recall.

No comparable result yet in these 3 categories. A blank is a blank, never a zero, and it does not lower the Index.

Every test it has taken, by category, with the kind of task it faced, who produced the number and where the result landed against the best published one. The examples are original and illustrative, never items from the datasets themselves.

Source: ArenaEvery result is read against the best published one on its test: percent scores as a share of the best above chance, Arena ratings as the expected win rate against the board leader, open-ended values on a log scale. Sitting a harder exam never lowers a model. Every number links to the publisher that produced it.
Head to head
Choose a rival. Every counted test both have taken appears side by side as a share of the best published result on that test, with the category means above. A win is a higher share; a gap under 2 points is a tie, because one item on a 45-problem exam is 2.2 points and publishers' own standard errors are of that order.

Bars are distances to the best published result on each test (percent scores above chance, Arena ratings as win rate against the leader, open-ended values on a log scale). Raw values as the publishers report them.
Open GPT-6 AstraScores
The best published run per benchmark, the raw value as the publisher reports it, who produced the number, how close it comes to the best published result on that test, and where the model sits among every model scored on it. Percent scores are read above chance, Arena ratings as a win rate against the board leader, open-ended values on a log scale. A test with too few models to compare against is shown but not counted.
Category means
Mean · tests taken of the category's comparable tests. A faded category either rests on fewer than half of them or is a single-test category (marked “beside”), which is shown next to the Index and never averaged into it.
