Availability

Availability

How often this model answers when we call it — measured across real API requests and live tests over the last 30 days. This is separate from quality: these numbers only tell you whether the model responds, not how good the answer is.

Technical details

Only live API calls and live-test requests count — internal probes and benchmark runs are excluded.

Calls with a custom API key (BYOK) are excluded: those failures are key-specific, not a sign of model downtime.

Failed calls are NOT included in quality scores — quality is measured on successful responses only. Availability and quality are independent signals.

Median response time (p50) across successful calls with a recorded duration. Outliers (very slow or very fast calls) pull the median less than the average.

Quality decline across categories with reasoning performance now unmeasured

Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite shows a notable 6-point drop in overall quality score, falling from 99.3 to 93.3 out of 100 in the current benchmark window. The model maintains perfect scores in coding and multilingual tasks at 100 each, but creative performance registered at just 80, suggesting potential regression in generative capabilities. Most concerning is the complete absence of reasoning scores in the current window, despite achieving a perfect 100 in this category previously. This missing data point makes it difficult to assess whether the model has actually lost reasoning capability or if the test coverage has simply changed. Latency remains relatively stable with a marginal increase from 1408ms to 1460ms at the median, representing a 52ms degradation that should be negligible for most use cases. The consistency in test runs at 5 per window provides reasonable confidence in these measurements. Users should be aware that while specialized tasks like coding and multilingual processing remain strong, the overall reliability appears to have decreased. The missing reasoning benchmark is particularly notable given its previous perfect performance, and users relying on logical inference capabilities should exercise caution until this metric is re-established.
