How the score works

FAQ

Before you save a workspace

Does the benchr workspace create an online account?

No. This version is guest-only. Watchlists, collections, and saved workspaces are stored in the browser on the current device. Export a JSON backup if you need to move them.

Are the recommendation scores official model benchmarks?

No. The decision score is an editorial calculation from the workload weights, available benchmark fields, benchr capability ratings, and your budget. Official facts, provider-published evaluations, and editorial estimates are labelled separately.

What does the monthly cost estimate include?

It multiplies the input and output token volumes you enter by the current per-million token prices in the benchr data file. It does not assume cache discounts, batch discounts, tool-call fees, taxes, or self-hosting infrastructure costs.

Can I share a model shortlist?

Yes. The Share button copies a URL carrying the current filters, shortlist, and decision scenario. Saved guest collections and other local library items are not included in the link.
