Multimodal Foundation Model Benchmarking

In 2026, the race between GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and Claude 4.5 Sonnet is no longer just about text. This pillar addresses comparisons of 'unified systems' that intelligently route prompts across text, audio, image, and video modalities. Key comparison metrics include 'Extended Thinking' modes, context window sizes (e.g., 1M vs. 10M tokens), and SWE-bench verified scores for agentic coding. Comparisons help clients select models based on 'cognitive density' and reasoning reliability.
