Computer Use Arena

The rating is a Bradley-Terry fit over every admissible blind human and model judgment, with standard errors clustered on the judge, refit from scratch on each refresh.

The rank is the position of the rating. Where two models’ intervals overlap, the data does not settle the order between those two; each row’s detail and the CSV carry its 95% rank band, the positions it could hold. A model under 30 rated comparisons is listed but not rated, because the fit for an unbeaten or winless record is unbounded.

A use case is read from each task’s prompt and start URL by a fixed rule set, listed on the Computer Use Arena page. Its ranking is the same fit over the comparisons the rules placed there, with the same floor and bands, on its own scale, so ratings are not comparable across use cases; ranks are. A use case is listed once it ranks at least 3 models. A task the rules cannot place counts in the overall ranking only.

Phone battles, where each agent drives an Android phone, are ranked on a board of their own by the same fit, with use cases of their own, and never enter the computer ranking’s comparisons or its judge weights. A judge found untrusted on either board is excluded from both.

A line through a dot, and the ± after a rating, is the 95% interval; a difference inside it is not resolved. The board publishes no battle counts, so a caption counts models, not comparisons.

Safety rates come from a fixed adversarial suite, not arena battles. Not measured means fewer than 20 decidable attempts in that family, or more undecidable attempts than decided ones; never that a model is safe.

Completion is the agent’s own report. Cost per task is list price per completed task: every token spent, including on runs that failed, at vendor list rates read up to 2026-11-02, uncached. The trade-off frontier joins the models no other model beats on both measures.

Open models are the ones whose maker publishes the trained weights for anyone to download and run (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017, MiniMax M3.1 Flash, Kimi K3, MiMo V2.6 Pro, Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B, Kimi K3.1 Pro and GLM 5.3 Flash); the Open models button narrows the board to them, each keeping its rank.

A retired model is no longer drawn into battles. Its judged battles stay in the fit while they remain in the ranking window, so its rating is refit with the board’s and moves with it; its place today is the position that rating would take among today’s ranked models, not a rank it held.

Run metrics exclude demo-mode runs. Coarena’s own agent is excluded from this board and cannot enter a battle. ·
