Claude 4.1 Opus Thinking ranks #184 out of 200 models on the public leaderboard with an overall score of 36.55/100. It also ranks #83 out of 99 on the verified leaderboard. While not a frontier model, it offers specific advantages depending on the use case.
Claude 4.1 Opus Thinking is a proprietary model with a 200K token context window. It uses explicit chain-of-thought reasoning, which typically improves performance on math and complex reasoning tasks at the cost of higher latency and token usage.
Claude 4.1 Opus Thinking sits inside the Claude 4.1 Opus family alongside Claude 4.1 Opus. This profile currently has 9 of 321 tracked benchmarks. BenchLM only exposes non-generated benchmark rows publicly, so missing categories stay blank until a sourced evaluation is available.
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.
