Open the original- What it measures
- The Open column is 'No' for this row, so the system is proprietary and cannot be run on your own hardware.
- What it does not show
- A snapshot from March 2026, averaged over the leaderboard's English datasets. The gap to the open Cohere row is 0.05 points on that average, so the two should be read as roughly equal.
