whatmodel.sh · find the best decision models you can run

Best Decision models for retrieval & classification to run locally

A leaderboard of the best Decision models for retrieval & classification you can run on your own computer. Clef is #1 right now, followed by Clef-omni and Bespoke Nimble 9B v3. Published typed-decision evaluations, with evaluator-specific protocols and tested settings retained. Each task score uses only its reviewed benchmarks. Each model shows the download that fits and the command to run it.

Compare tested decision models and inference recipes across text, vision and workflow tasks. Use task filters and raw results: probability consistency measures coherence, not correctness.
