Smartest AI models
The Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index combines many independent evaluations (reasoning, coding, math, science, agentic tool use) into a single capability score. It is the best at-a-glance signal for raw model intelligence — but always validate on your own workload, since the best model for a specific task is often not the highest overall.

How we rank
Scores for Intelligence Index come from Artificial Analysis, an independent AI benchmarking service. When a model is available through multiple providers (e.g. Anthropic direct, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex), we show one canonical entry per model family so the ranking isn't polluted by duplicates. Benchmarks measure specific skills — always validate on your own workload before committing.
One API for every model on this list
Requesty is OpenAI-compatible and routes to 400+ models. Switch between any of the models above by changing one parameter in your code.
