Why this result

Claude Haiku 4.5 has the cleaner BenchAlign overall profile here, landing at 56.58 versus 55.3. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.

Gemini 3.1 Pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $2.00 input / $12.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $1.00 input / $5.00 output per 1M tokens for Claude Haiku 4.5. That is roughly 2.4x on output cost alone. Gemini 3.1 Pro gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for Claude Haiku 4.5.
