What the tests say

Where GPT-5.1 stands out and where it falls behind, by the numbers

GPT-5.1 has published results on 29 tests compiled by Epoch AI. The yardstick here is its generation: its position among the models released between Feb 16, 2025 and Feb 11, 2026 that took the same test. Against the whole archive, which includes 2023 models, a recent release lands near the top of almost everything, and that says nothing.

Where it stands out

Tests where it sits in the top third of its own generation.

Cost per task

What GPT-5.1 costs to deliver each task

Price per token is what is on the price sheet; cost per task is what lands on the invoice, because it depends on how many tokens the model spends. Each point is an effort level, published by whoever ran the test and compiled by Epoch AI. The further up and to the left, the more score per dollar.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask about GPT-5.1

Where does GPT-5.1 rank among AI models?

In the ROO3 AI Benchmark, ordered by the Epoch AI ECI, GPT-5.1 ranks #59 out of 267 models, with an ECI of 149.76. The ECI is a composite index that combines several hard benchmarks into a single scale. The position changes when a new model comes out, and the page is refreshed six times a day.

Is GPT-5.1 better than Kimi K2.7 Code?

Across the 11 tests both models took and Epoch AI compiled, GPT-5.1 comes out ahead on 4, behind on 7 and tied on 0. It is a test-by-test count with no weighting: a win in math counts the same as a win in coding. To choose between the two, look at the tests that resemble your own use.

What is GPT-5.1 best at?

Against models of the same generation (released up to 9 months before and up to 3 months after it), the best relative results of GPT-5.1 are: Cl Bench (#1 of 13); Cl Bench Life (#1 of 6); CritPt (#3 of 32). The yardstick is its position among the models of that period that took the same test.

Where do the numbers on this page come from?

From the same three sources as the ranking, all openly licensed: Epoch AI (ECI and individual tests, CC BY 4.0), Arena (human-preference ELO, CC BY 4.0) and LiveBench (overall average, CC BY-SA 4.0). ROO3 does not measure any model. When the page shows a figure published by the maker itself, it appears in the written analysis, labeled as the maker's, and never enters the ranking.
