Aion-2.0 vs GPT-4o

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Aion-2.0 has the cleaner overall profile here, landing at 58 versus 56. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.

Aion-2.0's sharpest advantage is in instruction following, where it averages 93 against 82. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is SWE-bench Verified, 35 to 20. GPT-4o does hit back in multimodal & grounded, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

GPT-4o is also the more expensive model on tokens at $2.50 input / $10.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.80 input / $1.60 output per 1M tokens for Aion-2.0. That is roughly 6.3x on output cost alone.

Quick Verdict

Pick Aion-2.0 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GPT-4o only becomes the better choice if multimodal & grounded is the priority.
