GPT-5.1
According to BenchLM.ai, GPT-5.1 ranks #24 out of 119 models on the provisional leaderboard with an overall score of 78/100. It does not yet have enough sourced coverage for BenchLM's verified leaderboard. This places it in the mid-tier of AI models, with strengths in specific benchmark categories.
GPT-5.1 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.
This profile currently has 19 of 225 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 Multimodal & Grounded (#4), while its weakest is Instruction Following (#44). This performance profile makes it particularly strong for screenshots, documents, charts, and grounded multimodal workflows.
