the verified fusion leaderboard
Fusion models are the real frontier
No single model wins every benchmark. Combine the models you already pay for and the combined system scores higher β we measured it, and you can re-run the measurement.

Above that price, the fusion frontier sits above the solo frontier β
more accuracy for the same spend. Below it, a single small model is still the right call.
The board shows both, so you can pick by budget instead of by brand.
Every published score ships with its method. The recipe, the models,
the cost, and a notebook that reproduces the run on free Colab compute β before your coffee cools.
