Claude Mythos 5 ranks #1 out of 200 models on the public leaderboard with an overall score of 83.93/100. It also ranks #1 out of 99 on the verified leaderboard. This places it among the top tier of AI models available in 2026, competing directly with the strongest models from all major AI labs.
Claude Mythos 5 is a proprietary model with a 1M+ token context window. It uses explicit chain-of-thought reasoning, which typically improves performance on math and complex reasoning tasks at the cost of higher latency and token usage.
Claude Mythos 5 is restricted to Glasswing partners and trusted-access programs. Claude Fable 5 is the same underlying model made generally available with additional safeguards for cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, distillation, and frontier-AI-development requests.
This profile currently has 15 of 323 tracked benchmarks. BenchLM only exposes non-generated benchmark rows publicly, so missing categories stay blank until a sourced evaluation is available.
Its strongest category is Coding (#1), while its weakest is Agentic (#7). This performance profile makes it particularly well-suited for software development and code generation tasks.
Peer position
Exact provisional scores and ranks for the closest listed peers. A score can appear before a model clears the evidence threshold for a rank, so equal scores can have different rank states.
