Evaluating Twelve Frontier Models in a Multi-Run App Build-Off
A comprehensive testing suite evaluated 12 frontier models across five attempts each to build four complex visual applications, revealing that GPT models lead in 3D rendering while Claude Fable 5 dominates aesthetic and layout consistency. It offers realistic data on run-to-run variance, execution costs, and failure rates.
Why it matters. You can review raw builds and cost analyses to select the most reliable model for specific vibe-coding tasks like 3D physics or styled interfaces.
