How this chart is built
Based on public call data from a leading multi-model API gateway, reflecting how much each model is used in production. Usage is aggregated on a monthly basis.
Positions are renumbered from high to low by this table's own metric, independent of any ranking the source publishes. Figures are the current real data with no manual adjustment; values we cannot obtain show as “—” and are never filled in with estimates.
