Per-provider performance

Latency / throughput / uptime / price measured across providers over the last 30 minutes of live traffic. This is what proves “sourced cheapest” — Atlas mode draws on these per call to serve the cheapest path that holds quality.

“—” means live telemetry hasn’t accumulated enough recent traffic for that endpoint. “undisclosed” means the provider serves the model but doesn’t expose the quantization label (typically running fp8 / int8 internally).

Intelligence estimate

No public benchmark numbers indexed for this model yet, so the leaderboard score is derived from the catalogue data we sync: model family standing, generation, and live usage rank — applied identically to open- and closed-weight models. The heuristic ceiling sits below confirmed-benchmark frontier models so curated rankings stay clearly on top.

How Atlas mode sources ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash

  • Strict mode — pin ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 Flash exactly and we pass it straight through, sourced from the cheapest provider above. The same model, no substitutions — currently Seed at $0.07/1M.
  • Atlas mode — the default. Each call is auto-optimized for the cheapest path that holds quality, at least 5% off going direct from call one and climbing as it ramps. You always see which model served the call and exactly what you saved — thumbs-down anything you don’t like for a full refund.
