Why we exist

New models ship weekly, each with a wall of benchmark numbers that mean little to the person actually deciding where the budget goes. We translate that noise into a single, comparable view: how good a model is at a business task (summarisation, customer support, code generation, document extraction, and so on) versus what it costs to run.

How to read the platform

• The Competency vs Cost chart is the heart of the product. Vertical axis is competency for the task you pick; horizontal axis is cost; bubble size is speed; fill shows cloud vs open-weights.
• Find your model maps your task, volume, and accuracy needs to a shortlist of three models with monthly cost estimates.
• Compare puts any two models head-to-head; News tracks what changed and why it matters for business.

How the numbers are produced

Scores are recalculated daily from public benchmark sources and our own weighting model. The full scoring approach, data sources, and update cadence are documented on the methodology page.

Who builds it

ai.hiero.dev is built and maintained by hiero.dev(Hierographx LLC / Valere Growth Partners Inc.). Our design principle is simple: if a metric can't be explained to a business owner in one sentence, it doesn't belong on the dashboard.
