Shape of the matched evidence

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.

What each workload costs

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.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better, Gemini 2.5 Pro or GPT-5.4 mini?

Gemini 2.5 Pro has the higher public score estimate, 56.6 versus 55.84, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.

Which is better for coding, Gemini 2.5 Pro or GPT-5.4 mini?

The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted coding basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a coding winner.

Which is better for agentic tasks, Gemini 2.5 Pro or GPT-5.4 mini?

The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted agentic tasks basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a agentic tasks winner.

Which costs less, Gemini 2.5 Pro or GPT-5.4 mini?

For the stated presets, chat costs $0.00625 on Gemini 2.5 Pro and $0.003 on GPT-5.4 mini; repository review costs $0.0925 and $0.051; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.15 and $0.075. Costs use the listed standard API rates.

Which has the larger context window, Gemini 2.5 Pro or GPT-5.4 mini?

Gemini 2.5 Pro has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 400K.
