Vendors measure differently, so their claims are hard to compare. Artificial Analysis uses a relatively consistent method to place response latency, generation throughput and cost for different models in one view, helping judge which fits your workload. It is an independent review site whose data updates with model versions and runtime environments; some metrics have an API. Read relative positions, then confirm with your own load test.
What it does
- Provider metrics placed in one coordinate system
- Latency and throughput measured the same way
- Normalized cost for relative positioning
- Views for both capability and runtime efficiency
- Some data available through an API
Who it is for
- Caring about response speed behind one API
- Batch generation where relative throughput matters
- Comparing providers on cost
- A reference source when explaining a selection decision
How to get started
- Decide whether latency or throughput matters more
- Circle two or three candidates, then check each provider's support page
- Load test with your own requests to confirm the chart direction
