What fastest response measures
The response-time rank estimates how long a 500-token answer takes from request to completion. It favors providers that perform consistently across several models instead of relying on one unusually fast result.
LLM Providers: Speed Leaderboard & Benchmarks
The model-adjusted rating compares consistent 500-token response speed across exact-model comparisons, so one unusually strong model cannot dominate the result. A model-adjusted rating requires at least three exact models measured on another provider. Providers with only their own models remain visible using raw published catalog speed.

Provider benchmark guide
How to use the LLM Providers: Speed Leaderboard & Benchmarks
43 providers currently have enough shared measurements for this benchmark. Cerebras is currently first, with a published catalog median of 3.46 seconds. Review response time, response start, output speed, and coverage together before choosing a provider.
How provider catalogs are represented
This overall view reviewed 98 candidate models selected across provider catalogs. Each observation is normalized against other providers running the exact same model.
Read the coverage before choosing
This page reviewed 98 candidate models and currently has shared comparison data for 43 providers. The Rating basis field distinguishes model-adjusted rows from providers positioned using only their own-model catalog measurements.
