What entered the model guide
The reviewed set covers 7 tracked labs. Each record preserves its model name, lab, release date, domains, tasks, access classification, open-weight status, primary source links, and extraction path.
The catalog gives readers a source-backed way to browse releases and operating characteristics without turning catalog facts into a performance ranking.
What the catalog does not prove
Inclusion is not an endorsement. A catalog record does not establish benchmark leadership, adoption, price, latency, reliability, or overall superiority.
Model Gauntlet keeps Epoch catalog facts separate from evaluation results. A model only receives a current LMArena value when the published provider-frontier snapshot contains an exact matched record.
