Kimi K2.6 leads on the shared-benchmark average
Ahead on 12 of 13 shared benchmarks, averaging 7.1 points higher
Summarised only from the 13 percentage-scale benchmarks scored by every selected model; details are below.
“Best available” takes each model’s best recorded non-parallel result in the metric’s stated direction per benchmark, so it may combine modes into a virtual configuration that does not exist. Read it with the mode breakdown.

Benchmark-by-benchmark comparison. Changing the thinking mode or tool filters updates the chart and table below.
“Best available” picks the best non-parallel result in the metric’s stated direction separately for each benchmark. The resulting series can combine several reasoning levels and is not one reproducible runtime configuration. Choose a mode filter to compare like-for-like runs.

Each axis is the mean percentage score of one benchmark domain. It is an average, not a capability rating.

Method: for each model and benchmark, all scores in the current mode scope are averaged (not the best score), then those benchmark scores are averaged within each domain. Only benchmarks scored on a 0-100 scale by at least two of the selected models count — Elo and rating-scale benchmarks such as Codeforces or Arena are excluded, because averaging a 1500 rating with an 85% accuracy produces a meaningless number. Missing values are not counted as zero, and the averages are unweighted, so domains with harder benchmarks read lower.
Every model and runtime mode, benchmark by benchmark. Values are comparable along a row, not between different benchmarks.
