How Recipes & Cooking rankings are computed

Rankings are based on 20 models tested across 2 recipes & cooking challenges. Each model is scored using a composite algorithm: 70% task coverage (how many challenges the model has responses for) and 30% duel performance (win rate in blind community votes on these specific challenges, with the global RIVAL Index as a fallback when vote counts are low). Z.AI: GLM 4.5 Air currently leads with a score of 100.0/100. All ranking data is part of RIVAL's open dataset of 21,000+ human preference votes.

What is the best AI for recipes & cooking?

RIVAL ranks AI models for recipes & cooking using two signals across 2 challenges: 70% is task coverage (did the model actually show up), and 30% is duel performance (how often it wins blind community votes on these challenges, falling back to the global RIVAL Index when duels are sparse).

How are AI models ranked for recipes & cooking on RIVAL?

Models are scored with a composite algorithm: 70% comes from how many recipes & cooking challenges the model has responses for (coverage), and 30% comes from duel performance on those challenges (with global RIVAL Index as a fallback when sample sizes are small). Rankings are based on 20 models tested across 2 recipes & cooking challenges. All duel votes are blind — voters see responses without knowing which model produced them.
