How we rank
Every model is scored on five axes from 0–10: quality, control, speed, value, and ecosystem. The overall score is the weighted average, with quality weighted 1.5x.
Each month we re-run a standardized benchmark prompt set against every model in the category — same prompts, same evaluation rubric. Sample outputs are linked from each model's review page so you can judge for yourself.
We accept no vendor payments for ranking placement. Some links are affiliate links to vendors we don't host inside VideoCue; these never affect ordering.
