AA-Briefcase v1.1

AutomationBench-AA

Cost per Task (USD, Log Scale)

Weighted average cost per Intelligence Index task. Each evaluation’s cost is calculated from input, cache hit, cache write, reasoning, and answer token prices, divided by task count, and weighted by its Intelligence Index weight.

Weighted average cost (USD) per Intelligence Index task · Segmented by token type · Lower is better

Speed & Latency

Time per Intelligence Index Task

Output tokens divided by end-to-end output speed (minutes per Intelligence Index task) · Speed at the model's own endpoint or the median across providers · Lower is better

The weighted average time (minutes) per Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index task: output tokens per task divided by output speed, weighted by each benchmark's weight in the Intelligence Index.

Speed and latency metrics average each endpoint's runs over the past 5 days, and the error rate pools them. We run the benchmark every 6 hours, and endpoints of deprecated models every 18 hours.
