Benchmarks

Scores on standardized evaluations and this model’s own outputs on shared benchmark prompts. Higher percentages are better — and each rank shows where this model lands among the models evaluated on that source.

Benchmark outputs summary for TBC: mischief 1

  • Steaming mug: Thin steam rises from the coffee and drifts slowly to the right. Everything else holds still: the mug and its painted design, the table, the background, the lighting and the framing stay exactly as in the reference. Static camera. No cuts.

Providers

This model is hosted by one provider. OpenRouter forwards every request without routing.

Performance

Generation time is how long a video takes from submission to completion (lower is better). Speed is seconds of video generated per minute of generation time (higher is better).

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and provider routing options.
