Methodology · FAQ · Freshness
Full methodology →How often is BenchGecko data updated?›
Models and prices refresh daily from OpenRouter, benchmark scores daily from public leaderboards (Epoch AI, Artificial Analysis, LMArena, LiveBench and others), and Mindshare daily from Hacker News, Wikipedia and GitHub. Each page shows the date its data was last updated.
What is the Gecko Pulse?›
A 0-100 heat score for the AI market: 40% Bubble Index pressure, 20% model release velocity, 20% share of premium-priced models, 20% Mindshare attention. Higher means hotter. Daily values are recorded so changes are real, not estimated.
How are benchmark scores normalized?›
Every benchmark is min-max normalized across the full set of scored models. Rankings average normalized scores across ≥3 benchmarks per model to avoid over-weighting any single test.
Where does pricing data come from?›
OpenRouter list prices, snapshotted daily. Price-change events are only published when a change holds for a full day, so routing flicker is filtered out.
Can I cite BenchGecko data?›
Yes. Every page ships a Share & Cite bar with APA, MLA, BibTeX, Chicago, and plain-text formats. Attribution is required on the free API tier and encouraged everywhere.
