Gangsta AI
AI Model Leaderboard 2026
Updated November 1, 2026
These are AI rankings you can check: the top models ordered by an independent benchmark, with the votes of real users shown next to each score, so you can see where the numbers and people agree.
Compare the top AI models, side by side
Gangsta AI sends one prompt to multiple AI models at once — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DeepSeek and more — and lines up their answers so you can instantly see which is best for your task. No login required to try.
How these AI rankings work
The overall order comes from the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, an independent benchmark refreshed monthly. The Coding, Research and Writing tabs use Artificial Analysis per-task benchmarks where they exist, with the intelligence score as a fallback. Community votes are real thumbs up and down from people using these models here. We show them beside each score, but they don't change the rank.
From the leaderboard to one answer
A single model can be confidently wrong, and you can't tell in advance which one will miss. So we ask several of the strongest models the same question independently, then the month's top-ranked model cross-examines their answers, keeps what holds up and flags where they disagree. That is the multi-model consensus behind every verdict: agreement between independent models is evidence, and disagreement tells you where to look harder. The leaderboard decides which model does the cross-examining each month: see the King of AI page. For the graded evidence, see the proof.
