Gemini 3.7 Flash
Gemini 3.7 Flash leads on the public agentic lane, 58.6 to 20.1, with Supported evidence for both models and non-overlapping 90% intervals.
Updated September 27, 2026. Rank says Gemini 3.7 Flash is ahead. Price, access, and your workload can each overturn that. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

Gemini 3.7 Flash has the higher public score, 67.66 versus 36.05, and the 90% score intervals do not overlap. 4 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
Not enough matched evidence
Mistral Medium 3.5 128B is scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like.
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.
Directional only · BenchAlign v5.7
Gemini 3.7 Flash scores higher, but at least one score rests on Estimated evidence or a different benchmark set. Directional only, no winner.
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.
MMLU-Pro (Vals)Knowledge
Normalized gap 14.8Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign v5.7 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 v5.7) 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.

Gemini 3.7 Flash has the higher public score, 67.66 versus 36.05, and the 90% score intervals do not overlap. That is the clearest overall quality signal in the current public data.
Gemini 3.7 Flash scores higher for coding on the public lane, 60.3 to 26.9. Mistral Medium 3.5 128B is scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for coding from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.
Gemini 3.7 Flash leads the public agentic tasks lane, 58.6 to 20.1, with Supported evidence for both models and non-overlapping 90% intervals.
For the stated presets, chat costs $0.00263 on Gemini 3.7 Flash and $0.00525 on Mistral Medium 3.5 128B; repository review costs $0.04875 and $0.0975; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.0675 and $0.405. Mistral Medium 3.5 128B has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate.
Gemini 3.7 Flash has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 256K.
