Claude 3 Opus ranks #168 out of 200 models on the public leaderboard with an overall score of 41.13/100. It also ranks #78 out of 99 on the verified leaderboard. While not a frontier model, it offers specific advantages depending on the use case.
Claude 3 Opus is a proprietary model with a 200K token context window. It processes queries without explicit chain-of-thought reasoning, offering faster response times and lower token usage.
This profile currently has 5 of 321 tracked benchmarks. BenchLM only exposes non-generated benchmark rows publicly, so missing categories stay blank until a sourced evaluation is available.
Its strongest category is Coding (#106). This performance profile makes it particularly well-suited for software development and code generation tasks.
Peer position
Exact provisional scores and ranks for the closest listed peers. A score can appear before a model clears the evidence threshold for a rank, so equal scores can have different rank states.
