Updated October 2, 2026. Rank says Qwen3.7 Max is ahead. Price, access, and your workload can each overturn that. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public point estimate, 63.46 versus 42.41. Their conditional score ranges do not overlap. These ranges do not establish rank confidence. 6 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.
Code generation, repair, and software-engineering tasks
Qwen3.7 Max
Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public coding point estimate, 45.4 to 19.5, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Tool use, computer use, and multi-step task completion
Qwen3.7 Max
Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public agentic point estimate, 39.3 to 21.8, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.

The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. Claude Haiku 4.5 does not fit this workload in one request. Qwen3.7 Max has no comparable published API token rate.

Choose a job from the LLM Selector's task catalog to see the category row it rests on, under the same basis rules as the table below. A directional row stays directional; choosing a job never creates a winner.
The same task catalog as the LLM Selector. Each job names the evidence surface it rests on; nothing here adds a new score.
Like-for-like · BenchAlign v5.8
Qwen3.7 Max has the higher coding point estimate. Conditional score ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Coding scores combine specific tasks and setups. Match the editor, harness, and effort to your workflow.
Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.
1 category rests on Estimated evidence or different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

Normalized gap 7.1Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign v5.8 lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign v5.8) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the provisional lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.
Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.
1K fresh input + 500 output tokens
Qwen3.7 Max has no comparable published API token rate.
50K fresh input + 3K output tokens
Qwen3.7 Max has no comparable published API token rate.
200K cached + 20K fresh input + 10K output tokens
Claude Haiku 4.5 does not fit this workload in one request. Qwen3.7 Max has no comparable published API token rate.
Sourced differences are shown directly. Missing facts stay explicit instead of being inferred from a model name or family.
Maximum documented context; output-token limits may be lower.

Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public point estimate, 63.46 versus 42.41. Their conditional score ranges do not overlap. These ranges do not establish rank confidence. The page therefore keeps the decision tied to the specific documented workload.
Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public coding point estimate, 45.4 to 19.5, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Qwen3.7 Max has the higher public agentic tasks point estimate, 39.3 to 21.8, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Both models do not have comparable published API token rates, so this page does not name a universal price winner.
Qwen3.7 Max has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 200K.
The full public result ledger is available for audit without forcing a wide desktop table onto a phone.
