Frequently asked questions
This list is ranked by the LMArena WebDev leaderboard, where people compare two models' code side by side without knowing which is which. The top of the list is the best place to start; check the price columns before you pick one for daily use.
Sort by output price, or filter by price band, and look at the coding score beside it. Open-weight models served by third-party hosts are often the cheapest at a similar score.
An Elo-style rating from LMArena's WebDev arena. A higher number means people preferred the model's code more often in head-to-head votes. Only models with enough votes are ranked.
