Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index

Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index v1.5 incorporates 3 benchmarks: DeepSWE v1.1, Terminal-Bench 4.0, and SWE-Atlas-QnA · Higher is better

Color by

The Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index is a composite score built from DeepSWE v1.1, Terminal-Bench 4.0, and SWE-Atlas-QnA.

It is useful for quick comparison, but it should be read alongside the per-eval breakdowns. Two agents with similar index values can still have different strengths across repository tasks, terminal workflows, and rubric-based evaluations.

Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index vs. média do custo da API de pagamento por token por tarefa (USD)

Color by

Most attractive quadrant

Pareto line

Each point represents a coding-agent variant. Farther left means lower average cost per task, while higher on the chart means higher benchmark performance. The most efficient agents sit toward the upper-left: stronger results at lower cost.

Uso de tokens

Consumo de tokens no Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index.

Uso de tokens por tarefa

Média de tokens de entrada, cache e saída por tarefa

Prompt cache hit rates can vary significantly by provider routing, which can materially change effective cost.

Non-cached input tokens sent to the model, including prompts, instructions, tool context, and task context that were not served from prompt cache.

Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index vs. média de tokens totais por tarefa

Color by

Most attractive quadrant

Each point represents a coding-agent variant. Farther left means lower average total token usage per task, while higher on the chart means higher benchmark performance. Agents toward the upper-left achieve stronger results with fewer tokens.

Custo

Custo da API de pagamento por token no Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index, com base nos preços atuais por token.

Custo por tarefa

Average pay-per-token API cost per task (USD) · Lower is better

Color by

This chart shows the average pay-per-token API cost per task across the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index, spanning DeepSWE v1.1, Terminal-Bench 4.0, and SWE-Atlas-QnA.

Where applicable, that cost model includes standard input pricing, discounted cached-input pricing, separate cache-write charges, and output pricing rather than treating all prompt tokens as if they were billed at the same uncached input rate.

It is intended to show pay-per-token API cost, not consumer plan pricing or the full operational cost of deploying the system in production. Infrastructure, engineering, and supervision costs are not the focus of this metric.

Tempo de execução

Tempo de execução ativo do agente no Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index.

Tempo por tarefa

Average agent wall time per task · Lower is better

Color by

This chart uses agent wall time: how long the agent process was actively running on each task.

It does not include environment startup, verifier or judge time, or other harness overhead, so it is a cleaner comparison of how long the agent itself was working.

Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index vs. média do tempo de execução do agente por tarefa

Color by

Most attractive quadrant

Each point represents a coding-agent variant. Farther left means shorter average agent runtime per task, while higher on the chart means higher benchmark performance. Agents toward the upper-left deliver stronger results in less active agent time.
