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.

Market Gravity uses OpenRouter’s full-catalogue popularity order. Sparse Vercel top-ten observations appear only when published and do not affect the score.
Arena preference
Arena has published current community results for Max. No default-configuration result is published, so the raw Arena field stays configuration-specific. The strongest supported result can still inform ModelCap Score with reduced confidence.
