Introducing Agent Mode: Agentic AI is now measured in the Arena. Agent Mode can do deep research, create reports, generate images, build websites, debug code, and more. It completes more complex tasks by using tools like web search, bash in a sandbox environment, image generation, file writing, and asking follow-up questions. Frontier models are waiting for you in Agent Mode to take on real-world tasks. GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and top open models. Test them yourself.

GPT-6 Sol (Max) just landed in the Agent Arena with +7.7% net-improvement at #6 across 4K+ real-world agentic sessions from our global community of users! Compared with GPT 5.6 Sol (xHigh), this release is a +1.5-point lift in net improvement (+7.7% vs. +6.2%) and a point-rank move from #8 to #6, at half the per-token price. By signal GPT-6 Sol is strong in Confirmed Success at #4 with +11.4%, compared to 5.6 at #20 with 2.9%. Congrats to the @OpenAI team on GPT-6 Sol!

Claude Opus 5.5 (Max) delivers top performance at a blended $16 per Mtoken, reshaping the Pareto frontier.

Grok 4.7 by @SpaceXAI just landed in Agent Arena at #16, with a net improvement score of +3.96% Grok 4.7 (xHigh) shows improvement over previous versions, but comes with a comparable lift in price vs. Grok 4.6 (High): - Grok 4.7 (xHigh): $1.14 median per task / +3.96 net improvement - Grok 4.6 (High): $0.74 median per task / +1.22 net improvement - Grok 4.5: $0.43 median per task / +1.50 net improvement By signal, Grok 4.7 (xHigh) ranks: - #6 Confirmed Success (+10.41%) - #12 Bash Recovery (+5.98%) - #16 Praise vs Complaint (+4.93%) - #28 Steerability (-1.89%) - No issues with Tool Hallucination (+0.36%) Congrats to the @SpaceXAI team on this solid release!

Claude Opus 5.5 (High) reshaped the Text Arena Pareto frontier with 1509 pts at $16/MToken (input / output price per million tokens)!

Claude Opus 5.5 (High) debuts at #1 in Text Arena with 1509 pts! That’s an 18-pt improvement over Opus 5 (High), now at #11. Opus 4.6 (High) remains in the #2 spot, just 4 pts off the lead. This release gives @AnthropicAI all six top spots in Text Arena! Opus 5.5 (High) also landed on the Text Arena Pareto frontier at a blended $16/MToken, based on input/output pricing per million tokens! See its placement in the post below. Congrats to the @AnthropicAI team on the release!

GPT-6 Sol (Max) by @OpenAI has reshaped the Agent Arena Pareto frontier with a +7.7% net improvement at $0.75 median cost/task! It sits just 0.60 percentage points below Claude Fable 5 (High) (+8.3%) while costing 56% less per task ($0.75 vs. $1.72). Dive into the Agent Arena Pareto frontier details at the link below. Congrats to the @OpenAI team on this release!

This Week in the Arena: the arrival of GPT-6 Sol, Claude Opus 5.5, and the latest AI news in less than 60 seconds. Watch the full update. piped.video/watch?v=JLiguQgf…

We analyzed how @claudeai’s Opus 5.5 writes compared with Opus 5 across high-reasoning Text Arena outputs. 10 of 12 writing measures moved in a better direction. Opus 5.5 should be easier to read: - Long content words fall from 41.7% to 38.6%, the lowest share of any Claude model we analyzed. - Sentences are 17% shorter on average, dropping from 12.14 to 10.03 words. The tradeoff is length. Answers get 6% wordier, rising from 453 to 481 words on average, making Opus 5.5 give the longest answers across the Opus family. It also sounds less recognizably AI on two familiar tells: - 95% fewer em dashes - 73% fewer semicolons But a new giveaway may be emerging. Hedges and caveats such as “perhaps” and “arguably” rise 97%, from 0.39 to 0.77 per 1,000 words, the highest rate of any Claude model we analyzed. What do you think: does Opus 5.5 read more naturally?

In Agent Arena, we measure models on millions of real-world, long-horizon agentic tasks from a global community of users. Models can access web search, filesystem, and terminal tools to complete complex workflows. The leaderboard measures model performance on outcomes relative to the average model using a causal tracing methodology. See the Agent Arena leaderboard details at: arena.ai/leaderboard/agent

Big news: Claude Opus 5.5 (Max) by @AnthropicAI just topped #1 in Code Arena: WebDev with 1818 pts and reshapes the Pareto frontier! This is a solid +26pt lead ahead of the next best model, GPT-6 Astra (Max) and a huge +126pt improvement over previous Opus 5 (Max) at 1692. Across categories, we can see that Opus 5.5 (Max) lands in the top spots across domains for: - #1 Brand and Marketing, Reference-Based Design, Data & Analytics, Simulations and Gaming! - #2 Consumer Product Stay tuned for more domain and categorical insights to land as more votes come in. Congrats to @AnthropicAI on the release!
