What this leaderboard measures
Which AI model is better suited to coding?
This leaderboard covers code generation, repository understanding, debugging, testing, and tool-assisted development. A single coding problem cannot represent full software engineering ability.
Four capability dimensions
The four dimensions come from the category blueprint. Available data may cover only some of them. A dimension without evidence is not presented as a verified capability.
Code generation
6 benchmark columns currently provide evidence for this dimension.
- SciCode
- LiveCodeBench
- AA-SciCode
- LiveCodeBench v6
- LiveCodeBench Pro
- AA Coding Index
Repository engineering
4 benchmark columns currently provide evidence for this dimension.
- SWE-bench Pro
- Vibe Code Bench
- NL2Repo
- React Native Evals
Debugging & testing
3 benchmark columns currently provide evidence for this dimension.
- SWE-bench Verified
- SWE Multilingual
- SWE-Rebench
Tool-assisted development & quality
3 benchmark columns currently provide evidence for this dimension.
- Terminal-Bench 2.0
- AA Terminal-Bench 2.1
- Terminal-Bench Hard
Coding tasks this page can help with
- Daily coding work such as completing functions, explaining code, and building small features.
- Cross-file repository changes that require understanding the existing structure and limiting the edit scope.
- Coding agents that use a terminal, tests, and code tools to finish a task.
How to choose a model with this leaderboard
- Step 1
Check the rating status first
Only Rated models receive a rank. Estimated and Provisional models do not have a formal position.
- Step 2
Review uncertainty and evidence
When scores are close, do not rely on rank alone. Check uncertainty, dimension coverage, and benchmark count.
- Step 3
Test the real task last
A leaderboard cannot replace your own test. Check quality, speed, price, context, and provider limits together.
Filter by language, repository size, and toolchain first. Also check test success, edit scope, speed, and cost.
Rating status guide
Rated
Rated means the evidence and overlap rules are met. The model can receive a formal rank.
Estimated
Estimated means there is useful evidence, but it is not enough for a formal rank.
Provisional
Provisional means evidence is limited or dimension and benchmark-family coverage is below the estimated threshold. Use the result only as an early signal.
Benchmarks and evidence sources
Evidence source names and benchmark groups come from the currently available score data. One source may contribute several benchmarks.

How the coding model ranking is built
LMSpeed combines eligible third-party benchmarks inside four fixed capability dimensions. Rated models meet the evidence and overlap requirements for a formal rank; Estimated and Provisional models remain visible without receiving a rank.
Read the Category Score methodologyLeaderboard limits
Category Scores use the third-party benchmarks currently included by LMSpeed. Tests can use different data, prompts, and scoring rules. The result is not permanent and cannot represent every real task. Test important choices with your own data and workflow.
Frequently asked questions
Which visible model has the highest formal rank now?
Among the currently visible models, Claude Opus 5 has the highest formal position at global rank 1. Its Category Score is 67.7. 40 visible models meet the formal ranking rules. This result applies only to the run date and methodology version shown on the page.
Can I compare scores across different categories?
No. Each category uses different capability dimensions and evidence. A Category Score is comparable only inside the same leaderboard. Review the matching category for each task.
Are Estimated and Provisional models still useful?
They can help you find candidates, but their evidence is not complete enough for a formal rank. Review coverage and uncertainty, then test the model on a real task.
How often does the leaderboard update?
The leaderboard updates after a new completed score run is published. The current run date and methodology version appear above. LMSpeed does not promise a fixed daily or weekly schedule.
Is the number one model always best for me?
No. Your result also depends on speed, price, context length, tool support, region, and provider limits. Use the leaderboard to narrow the field, then run your own test.
How is the coding ranking different from general reasoning?
The coding ranking gives more weight to code, repository, debugging, and testing tasks. A reasoning score can explain part of a model's behavior, but it cannot replace executed code and real test results.
