Cost vs Long-Context Reasoning
245 priced modelsEach labelled name links to that model’s page. Curated to the cost-efficiency frontier, top scorers and cheapest so labels stay readable; the full field is in the leaderboard table below (and via “select all”). Reasoning models (extended “thinking” before answering) carry a ring around the dot.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Long-Context Reasoning benchmark?
Measures a model’s ability to retrieve, synthesise and reason across very long inputs spanning tens to hundreds of thousands of tokens, beyond simple fact lookup. Artificial Analysis reports this as AA-LCR; the broader category also draws on evaluations such as RULER and LongBench.
Which AI model scores highest on Long-Context Reasoning?
Kimi K3 (Moonshot) leads with 89%, from $0.70 per 1M input tokens as an OpenRouter routed quote, while Moonshot lists it at $3.00 per 1M input.
How many models are ranked on Long-Context Reasoning?
380 models carry a Long-Context Reasoning score. Scores come from Artificial Analysis; where a model has a listed API price it is drawn from LiteLLM and OpenRouter, and models with no current price are listed without one.
