Where this lab wins

  • Coding: 1 tracked model with SWE-bench / HumanEval-style scores.
  • Agentic: 1 tracked model with BFCL, tau-bench, and SWE-bench tool-use coverage.
  • JSON/tool-use: 1 tracked model with BFCL / Nexus strict-JSON routing coverage.

Flagship quality / price signal

Flagship: SWE-1 (best sourced coding quality-per-dollar in this portfolio).

Quality-per-dollar unavailable for this flagship — benchmark coverage or output token pricing is still missing.
