Reasoning
ARC-AGI Leaderboard
ARC-AGI tests fluid, abstract reasoning on small visual grid puzzles where each task follows a novel rule the model must infer from a few examples. It deliberately resists memorization and is one of the most-watched measures of general reasoning progress.

Score vs model size
Which models give the most quality for their size — the ones worth running locally.
- Magistral Small 2506, 24B, score 5.0% — on the efficiency frontier (best score at its size or smaller).
- MiniMax M2.5, 229B, score 63.7% — on the efficiency frontier (best score at its size or smaller).
- Kimi K2.5, 1.1T, score 65.3% — on the efficiency frontier (best score at its size or smaller).
ARC-AGI: frequently asked questions
- What is the best open LLM on ARC-AGI?
- Kimi K2.5 is the top open model on ARC-AGI, scoring 65.3%. Among all models tested — including proprietary ones — it ranks #55. The top model overall is Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview (Google DeepMind) at 98.0%.
- What's the best ARC-AGI model you can run on a 24 GB GPU?
- Magistral Small 2506 is the highest-scoring open model that fits in 24 GB at 4-bit quantization (about 13 GB), scoring 5.0% on ARC-AGI.
- Can open models match proprietary models on ARC-AGI?
- Not quite on ARC-AGI: the strongest proprietary model (Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview) scores 98.0%, ahead of the best open model (Kimi K2.5) at 65.3% — but you can run the open one yourself.
