Model capability, cost and demand

250 benchmarked model identities; 200 have an exact catalog match. 8 ambiguous benchmark entries remain flagged and are excluded from the excerpt below.

Artificial Analysis — Intelligence Index. Higher reported scores first; each row preserves the evaluator's configuration label. The benchmark version is not reported. These results do not measure full workflow economics.

Usage window: 2026-08-17 → 2026-09-15. OpenRouter public routed traffic excludes private and zero-data-retention traffic. A missing daily top-50 entry is unreported, not zero; ≥ marks a lower bound. Listed prices come from the selected catalog snapshot, not historical executed prices.

Hub links establish access evidence only; licensing and open-versus-closed classification remain unverified.

Rejected matches (not evidence)

Rejected matches (not evidence)
entitycandidate typereviewerreason
MICROSOFTdebt_refinancing_maturityclaude-automated-review (research-verified; delegated by operator 2026-08-31)False positive: the matched term "debt maturities" occurs in Microsoft's generic liquidity assertion (existing cash, operations and capital-market access sufficient to fund dividends, share repurchases, debt maturities and capital expenditures for at least 12 months). Verified in the 10-K (accession 0001193125-26-323660): no new issuance, refinancing transaction, or specific maturity event is disclosed in that passage; debt additional-information reports only fair value of long-term debt ($36.5B at Jun 30 2026) with no fiscal-2026 issuance. No typed fact exists to confirm.
NVIDIAdebt_refinancing_maturityclaude-automated-review (research-verified; delegated by operator 2026-08-31)Disclosure verified real but not a discrete refinancing/maturity event: the match is NVIDIA's aggregate debt maturities schedule as of Jul 26 2026 (due <=1y $1,000M; 1-5y $15,000M; 5-10y $7,500M; >10y $10,000M), a bucketed liability table. The underlying June 2026 $25.0B issuance is captured by the confirmed debt_issuance review on the sibling candidate from the same document. The typed fact model has a single maturity_date and cannot represent maturity buckets; re-emit or re-review once maturity-bucket fact items exist (open work item in current-build-state).

Methodology: the runtime is deterministic end to end. Each chart is labelled bullish, bearish, mixed, or no read for an explicitly named subject and horizon. No domain total, composite, or numeric confidence is calculated. Missing evidence remains unavailable; hits and misses publish at equal prominence. The sha256 of this issue's final markdown is stored append-only in aib_gold.report_issues for future external anchoring.
