Pick o1 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Soofi S 30B-A3B only becomes the better choice if you want the cheaper token bill or you need the larger 1M context window.
Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 1 shared benchmark result across 1 evidence category; 1 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.
Why this result
o1 is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 55 to 45. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
o1's sharpest advantage is in knowledge, where it averages 75.7 against 49.9. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is GPQA, 75.7% to 43.4%.
o1 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $15.00 input / $60.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for Soofi S 30B-A3B. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. o1 is the reasoning model in the pair, while Soofi S 30B-A3B is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. Soofi S 30B-A3B gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for o1.
