# Using the Index

## Rank by

**Overall** ranks models scored by boards from two independent publishers. A **category** (Agents, Coding, Reasoning, Knowledge, General, Human preference) or a **domain** inside it ranks every model a recognised board has measured there; rows placed only by report figures carry a ✱ after their number.

When no recognised board measures a domain yet, a note above the table says so: every figure there is from one publication, a comparison set its publisher chose. Read those positions as “within that set”.

## Reading a row

* **Index** — the Overall score. `~55✱` is an estimate; `≤` / `≥` mean the model sat outside the range of the models it could be compared with.
* **Sources** — one mark per recognised board (filled = scored; hover for the figure), a ✱ with a count for reports, and `n/N` coverage.
* **provisional** — fewer than two independent publishers.

## The model card

Open a row for: facts about the model (organisation, size, open weights, context, first listed), scores by category → domain, **how to call it** (OpenRouter id, vendor site, weights) and every source figure with the exact label the source printed.

## Sharing

Every filter lives in the URL. **Share on X / LinkedIn / Copy link** share exactly the current view; the link previews as a card of that view’s top ten. **Export chart** downloads the same top ten as a PNG.
