Real-world benchmark testing across seven coding and reasoning tasks scored it just 16/70 (22.86%), placing it near the bottom of the leaderboard and well below GLM-5.2 (81%) and frontier models. Despite weak coding performance, the model is available completely free on OpenRouter with a 262K context window, making it a practical choice for high-volume, low-complexity tasks like summarization, data extraction, and agentic pipelines where cost matters more than raw capability. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
