Not independent measurement

Structured rows reported in this exact model repository at the pinned revision below. They are the publisher talking about itself: never measured evidence, never a score input on their own. Rows marked as used were laddered against independently measured peers inside the launch-card channel of this model's modeled placement, with the replay-measured optimism haircut applied; the others played no part.

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.

Step 3.7 Flash: common questions

How does Step 3.7 Flash rank among AI models?

Step 3.7 Flash holds ModelCap Index position #96 of 248 ranked language models as of 22 September 2026, with an Index score of 51.8 (interval 39.6–64.0); evidence: modeled · succession. The Index combines public benchmark boards with published uncertainty; the methodology page explains the weighting.

How much does Step 3.7 Flash cost per 1M tokens?

Step 3.7 Flash is listed at $0.20 per 1M input tokens and $1.15 per 1M output tokens as of 22 September 2026; the lowest output price among 3 providers is $0.92 on DeepInfra. Prices come from the OpenRouter catalogue and re-observe on every refresh. For 1,000 requests using 2,000 input and 500 output tokens each, the listed rates imply $0.975 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.
