How to use comparison filters

Filters apply only to the 50 displayed alternatives (at most 50), in the original usage order. Blank thresholds include unavailable evidence; active thresholds exclude it. Recorded zero is distinct from unavailable. Success measures public-run completion, not output accuracy.

Event IDs match exactly, never by a similar label. Matching events do not establish equivalent output or total cost. FREE models have no selected billing unit.

Ranked by 30-day users, with actor ID breaking ties. Rates are recorded list-tier USD amounts per 1,000 selected primary billing events, not inferred output counts. Even matching billing units do not prove equivalent output or total cost. Pricing models, event definitions, features, run-start charges, additional charge events and platform fees can differ. Unavailable means no known recorded rate; zero event rates and explicit FREE models are shown separately. No price ranking is made. Completion highlights require current observations on the same date and valid evidence from 20+ public runs for each tool. Rolling public-run workloads differ; differences are descriptive and do not establish statistical significance, better reliability or output quality for your use case.
