Capability badges appear only where the provider catalog explicitly lists support. A blank cell means the source is silent, not that the feature is absent.

Recorded from the source catalog and provider listings.
Every result stays attached to its source, version, metric and harness. Scores from different versions are never merged, and the profile below plots each benchmark against its own population rather than on a shared scale.
ModelBench does not infer quality from price, context size, or model name. When a source publishes a comparable result, it appears here with its version and link.
Answered directly from the stored record — nothing here is generated beyond the catalog's own fields.
