The median turn latency is 39.7 seconds per prompt, not per whole build, which derives to 6.0 min across the full nine prompt specification. That is a tenth percentile of 24.2 seconds and a ninetieth percentile of 64.4 seconds across 45 recorded executions.

77.8% of recorded executions met the published pass criterion with no operator intervention. 6 were partial and 4 failed outright. Every one of those rows is published on this page.

Coding agents / rank 5 of 17 / cycle 04

Amp benchmark

One of the three fastest agents in the index and the one that wasted the least time on work nobody asked for. It runs at whatever model tier it judges the task needs, which is why the duration spread is tighter than the raw speed suggests. It has no interface of its own and does not pretend otherwise, so design and SEO track the stack rather than the tool.

Pricing

From USD 20 per month on the Megawatt plan, which bundles an agent usage allowance worth the subscription price. There is no free tier and no trial. An Unconstrained pay as you go tier exists for usage that does not fit a monthly plan, but the vendor publishes no rate card for it, so it cannot be budgeted in advance.

Pricing note

Gigawatt is USD 200 per month. Students and teachers can self declare for an education discount at USD 10 per month. The Unconstrained and Enterprise tiers publish no figure.

Entry price: USD 20 / month
Priced from: vendor pricing page
Value subscore: 77.0
Index points per euro: 4.29

Entry price is the vendor's own published figure, fetched 28 Aug 2026, never a currency conversion. The currency label is the vendor's own except where the pricing note above records that this lab inferred it. Index points per euro is computed from a separate, euro-normalised figure used only for the Value axis: Converted at the European Central Bank euro reference rate of 1.1699 US dollars to the euro, August 21, 2026.

Seeded at launch

The reader scores, lab notes and open ratings published here were written by this lab in August 2026 to populate the reader column before the site had readers. They are not customer submissions, they are not vendor supplied and nobody was paid for them. Anything submitted since then comes from a registered account. The lab index is measured from logged runs and is unaffected either way.

The reader index is a weighted mean of reader submitted axis scores using the published index weights, renormalised over the axes readers have scored. It is never blended into the lab index. How this works.

What agent performance looked like in practice

Across 45 recorded executions this product met the published pass criterion cleanly 35 times, partially 6 times and failed 4 times. The rows above carry the reviewer note for every non clean outcome, which is the only way to tell a product that fails loudly from one that fails quietly.
