Coverage details

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Capability shape

Each axis shows percentile within that category’s eligible cohort. The comparison outline is the median of the six nearest public-score peers; a collapsed vertex means the category is not rank-eligible.

What it costs to get this score

Published API price against the public score. The x-axis uses a log scale; the dashed path marks models that are not beaten by a cheaper, higher-scoring option. Price uses average of published input and output rates.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

Solar Pro 3 ranks #185 of 228 on the public leaderboard with a score of 30.03/100. It does not yet have enough sourced coverage for a verified position.

Solar Pro 3 is a proprietary model with a 128K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Available through the Upstage Console API as solar-pro3 (a 102B-total, 12B-active MoE with a 131,072-token context), plus OpenRouter and other routers. Upstage lists it at $0.15 input and $0.60 output per million tokens.

Solar Pro 3 sits in the Solar family with Solar Pro 2, Solar Pro 4. Its explicit predecessor is Solar Pro 2. 1 of 766 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Its strongest eligible category is Instruction Following at #42. a well-rounded choice across a range of tasks.

Last updated October 25, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Where to run Solar Pro 3 by API

OpenRouter is the one host we track that publishes a per-token price for it. Prices read from each host’s own pages on October 20, 2026.

Questions

How does Solar Pro 3 perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Solar Pro 3 ranks #185 out of 228 models on the public BenchAlign leaderboard, with a score of 30.03/100. Its evidence status is Estimated, and this profile shows 1 source-displayable benchmark row. The label describes evidence depth, not a provider quality claim; inspect category rows before choosing a workload.

Is Solar Pro 3 good for instruction following?

Solar Pro 3 ranks #42 out of 153 eligible models for instruction following, with a public category score of 87.1/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Which sibling models are related to Solar Pro 3?

Solar Pro 3 belongs to the Solar family. Related tracked variants include Solar Pro 2, Solar Pro 4. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Solar Pro 3 have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Solar Pro 3 currently has 13 source-displayable rows. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Solar Pro 3?

Solar Pro 3 has a documented context window of 128K. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
