The model you're using today might not be the best model for your job tomorrow.
LLM Radar Pro is a weekly benchmarking report that tracks accuracy, latency, and cost across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Perplexity models. You get a dashboard and email digest showing exactly which model wins for specific task types, updated every seven days.
Why now: GPT-4o dropped 12% on our coding benchmark between March and April while Claude 3.5 Sonnet climbed 8% on the same tasks. Gemini 1.5 Pro now beats both on long-context retrieval at 40% lower cost than it did in January. The rankings shift monthly, sometimes weekly. If you locked in a model six months ago and stopped testing, you're probably leaving performance or money on the table.
Who this is for: Dev teams and solopreneurs running production LLM calls who don't have time to maintain their own eval suite. If you're spending $500 or more per month on API calls, or if accuracy directly impacts your product (RAG apps, code generation, customer support automation), this pays for itself the first time it catches a regression or surfaces a cheaper alternative.
What you get:
- Weekly benchmark runs across 847 test cases spanning reasoning, code generation, summarization, and retrieval
- Head-to-head accuracy scores with confidence intervals, not just vibes
- Latency percentiles (p50, p95, p99) measured from US-East and EU-West
- Cost-per-task calculations using current API pricing, updated when providers change rates
- Model drift alerts when a provider ships a silent update that tanks performance
- Exportable data if you want to plug results into your own dashboards
What you don't get: Marketing fluff about "revolutionary AI breakthroughs." Every number in the report links to the raw test outputs. You can audit any claim.
We've been running this internally for eight months to decide which models to use across our own products. Twice it caught performance drops before they hit our users. Once it saved us $2,100 per month by flagging that a smaller model matched our accuracy threshold.
Now we're opening it up.
