| Benchmarks | ||
SWE-Bench VerifiedCoding — Real coding tasks pulled from open-source projects — the AI has to find and fix actual bugs. A human-checked version of the original SWE-Bench. Higher is better. | 66% | 80.4% |
LiveCodeBenchCompetitive coding — Coding problems published so recently the AI can't have seen them in training — a contamination-free test of raw programming skill. Higher is better. | 74.8% | 91.6% |
Humanity's Last Exam · with toolsMultidisciplinary reasoning — Humanity's Last Exam — extremely hard expert questions across many subjects. “With tools” means the AI is allowed to search the web or run code while answering. Higher is better. | 15.9% | 41.4% |
BullshitBench v2Nonsense detection — Given a confidently-worded but nonsensical prompt, does the AI spot that it makes no sense and push back — instead of playing along and inventing an answer? The score is how often it clearly called out the nonsense. Higher is better. | — | 72% |
SWE-Bench ProAgentic coding — Can the AI fix real bugs in real software? It's handed actual problems from open-source projects and has to write code that genuinely solves them. Higher is better. | — | 60.6% |
Terminal-Bench 2.0Agentic terminal coding — Can the AI work in a command-line terminal — running commands and finishing technical setup tasks the way a developer would? (Version 2.0 of the test.) Higher is better. | — | 69.7% |
MCP AtlasMulti-step tool use — Can the AI chain together many tools and steps to complete one bigger task, rather than doing just a single thing? Higher is better. | — | 76.4% |
GPQA DiamondScience — Graduate-level science questions in biology, physics, and chemistry — hard enough that subject-matter PhDs score around 65%. Higher is better. | — | 92.4% |

Qwen3.7-Max leads DeepSeek V3.1 on 3 of the 3 benchmarks they both report (SWE-Bench Verified, LiveCodeBench, Humanity's Last Exam). Only Qwen3.7-Max has a verified first-party API price: $2.50 per million input tokens and $7.50 per million output tokens. No pay-as-you-go API rate is tracked for DeepSeek V3.1. DeepSeek V3.1 shipped 272 days before Qwen3.7-Max, so benchmark comparisons should account for the intervening progress.
DeepSeek V3.1 is open weight, while Qwen3.7-Max is closed.
On SWE-Bench Verified, Qwen3.7-Max leads at 80.4% vs DeepSeek V3.1 at 66%. On LiveCodeBench, Qwen3.7-Max leads at 91.6% vs DeepSeek V3.1 at 74.8%. On Humanity's Last Exam · with tools, Qwen3.7-Max leads at 41.4% vs DeepSeek V3.1 at 15.9%.
