General assistants: the best models

All-purpose agents that plan and carry out many kinds of task.

How this page ranks

  • Ranked by the Agentic Index (Artificial Analysis, through OpenRouter), highest first. Ties go to the lower blended price.
  • A model counts for this job when its taxonomy v2 classification names general assistants, or its old category maps to it.
  • Each model must list text output on OpenRouter or on its own record.
  • Prices and scores come from the market tables only, each with the day it is for. The price on a model's own record is not used.
  • Missing data never ranks. A model with no confirmed score in the last 30 days or unknown inputs and outputs is listed apart, with the reason. Price is shown when one is confirmed, and is not needed to rank.

Market data as of 10 Nov 2026. Prices: OpenRouter models API (official). Score: Artificial Analysis, through OpenRouter (third-party).

Ranked: 124 of 927 models
