How to read this page

This is not a leaderboard. We list each lab's most recent models and the facts printed on the vendor's own pages, newest first. Prices are list prices in USD per million tokens (input / output) and change often. “Not confirmed” means we couldn't read it on an official page, so we left it blank instead of guessing. “Limited access” and “Preview” mean you may not be able to use the model yet, even if a price is published.

Not listed yet. Amazon (Nova) — No current flagship could be confirmed from AWS's own pages; its newest verifiable models date from December 2025. We would rather leave a lab off than list a model we can't back up.

Method

How we verify and keep this current

A short list of rules, so you know what a blank or a date means.

Vendor pages first — every card links the lab's own page for that model. Specs and prices come from those pages, not from leaderboards or reposts.

Blank beats a guess — if a lab's pages don't state a context window or price, the field says “Not confirmed.” A “Partly confirmed” tag means a date or figure rests on a secondary source or conflicting pages; the note under the card says which.

Latest only — each lab shows its newest release. When a successor ships, the older entry is replaced, so this page stays readable as the pace of releases keeps climbing.

No scores, no ranking — we don't publish benchmark numbers or order models by quality. The only ordering here is release date, newest first.
