AI Model Benchmark Directory

LMSpeed is an AI model directory for comparing API price, output speed, first-token latency, provider coverage, and benchmark data. Use it to narrow your model and provider choice, then test the endpoint that fits your workload.

Price, speed, latency, and availability can change. Treat this table as a current signal and verify your own endpoint before you deploy.

How to read category scores

Agents, Coding, Reasoning, and the other capability columns are 0–100 observed-capability estimates relative to the eligible model population in a dated Category Score V3 run.

They are not success rates, IQ scores, or an average across all eight categories. Read them with the 80% interval, measured dimensions, benchmark families, and evidence shown on each model page.

Read the complete scoring methodology

What this directory shows

Each row brings together the information you need to compare an LLM API. Some fields are blank when LMSpeed has no current data for that model or provider.

API price
Compare input and output price per million tokens when it is available.
Speed and latency
Use throughput and first-token latency to compare response behavior.
Provider coverage
Open a model to review its listed providers and their current details.
Capability data
Use the capability columns when current model scores are available.

How to use the model directory

Start with the decision that matters most for your workload, then compare the current rows before you test an endpoint.

  1. Find a model.Search by model name, slug, or description.
  2. Sort the key metric.Sort by price, throughput, latency, provider count, or capability data.
  3. Compare providers.Open a model page to review the provider options and current data.
  4. Test your endpoint.Run a speed test before you use an endpoint in production.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does LMSpeed benchmark AI models?

LMSpeed runs standardized five-round API speed tests on each model, measuring output throughput (tokens per second), first-token latency, and total response time across multiple providers.

Which AI model has the lowest API latency?

Latency varies by provider and model. Use the LMSpeed model directory to sort by latency and find the model with the fastest first-token response time. Check the latency leaderboard for monthly rankings.

How to compare LLM API pricing across providers?

LMSpeed lists input and output token prices per million for each model across available providers. Sort by price to find a lower-cost option, or filter by provider to compare rates side by side.

What is an AI model directory?

An AI model directory is a searchable list of models and their comparison data. On LMSpeed, it brings together API price, throughput, first-token latency, provider coverage, and capability data when available.

How do I choose a model and provider?

Start with the metric that matters most for your workload. Then open a model page to compare provider data. Run your own speed test before you use an endpoint in production.

Can model price and speed change?

Yes. Price, availability, throughput, and latency can change by model, provider, and time. Use current page values as a comparison signal and confirm with your own endpoint test.
