OpenRouter endpoint status could not be refreshed. This model is not treated as currently served until a successful observation arrives.
Current provider status is unavailable.
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.
Experimental estimate. This layer predicts from admitted evidence and safe metadata only. It never enters ModelCap Score or rank.
Not yet published: a current serving provider, measured provider uptime, published provider pricing, declared context and output limits, admitted benchmark results, results across several capability areas, results from more than one source, a confident match to its benchmark entries, 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.

Step3 VL 10B holds ModelCap Index position #67 of 350 ranked language models as of 24 October 2026, with an Index score of 61.1 (interval 42.8–79.5); evidence: modeled · peer benchmarks. The Index combines public benchmark boards with published uncertainty; the methodology page explains the weighting.
No live API price is listed for Step3 VL 10B in the current snapshot as of 24 October 2026 because the latest endpoint refresh was unavailable. ModelCap shows a price only when a provider currently lists one.
