Limited evidence. Measured on only 1 public benchmark, with limited support, so the score is less certain than a broadly measured one. What this label means
No general-family board lists this model yet. Its point estimate is the precision-weighted mean of every channel that spoke for it; each channel’s share is the weight it carried. Independent measurements replace this placement as boards list the model.
BES normalizes admitted public benchmark evidence for measured Index rows. Its legacy score and observables prior do not define the public language rank.
These adoption and deployment observations remain context only. They do not change this model's ModelCap Index score or rank.
The bounded 0–100 capability score blends each source’s competitive placement with its published achievement, then combines capability families. Evidence breadth adds a modest uncertainty adjustment; price and popularity are not part of benchmark-led rank.
Not yet published: a pinned repository revision, the architecture and model type, a parameter count, safetensors weight metadata, the base model it derives from, a declared licence, a link to the licence terms, pinned evaluation dataset versions.
A metadata completeness and deployability index—not a safety certification, quality grade, or production-readiness claim.
Market Gravity uses OpenRouter’s full-catalogue popularity order. Sparse Vercel top-ten observations appear only when published and do not affect the score.
This model is visible because it is available in the live catalogue, but it has no trustworthy community result yet. ModelCap does not infer a quality score from price, features, or market activity.

Dots3-Note Preview holds ModelCap Index position #75 of 277 ranked language models as of 29 September 2026, with an Index score of 59.1 (interval 36.4–81.8); evidence: measured · blended. The Index combines public benchmark boards with published uncertainty; the methodology page explains the weighting.
Dots3-Note Preview is listed at Free per 1M input tokens and Free per 1M output tokens as of 29 September 2026. Prices come from the OpenRouter catalogue and re-observe on every refresh; at least one provider lists a free tier. For 1,000 requests using 2,000 input and 500 output tokens each, the listed rates imply Free total (2M input + 0.5M output). This excludes caching, batch discounts, prompt-length tiers, tool charges and retries; verify the chosen endpoint's rate and limits before budgeting.
Dots3-Note Preview has a published context window of 512K tokens (512,000) and a maximum output of 461K tokens. Individual providers can serve less than the published maximum; the providers table lists each endpoint's own limit.
API only. No downloadable model weights are linked in the current source data; access is through a hosted API or product.
One provider serves Dots3-Note Preview through OpenRouter as of 29 September 2026: AtlasCloud. Each provider's price, context limit, quantization and measured uptime are in the providers table above.
Dots3-Note Preview has published results on 1 public board tracked by ModelCap as of 29 September 2026: ARC-AGI-2 76.8% (#38 of 234). Each board page ranks every tracked model on that benchmark. The ModelCap Index scores the results its methodology admits, with published uncertainty, and shows reference boards without scoring them.
Dots3-Note Preview first appeared in the catalogue on 14 Aug 2026. It is the current version in its family. Rank and price movements since then are recorded on the site's changes feed.
