Frequently Asked Questions

What should I know about Fugu Ultra v1.1?
Sakana AI develops this multi-model orchestration system in Japan. Results measure the coordinated model pool, not a standalone base model. These are provider-reported system evaluations, not independent Artificial Analysis or Vals measurements. Benchmark effort and harness details are not fully disclosed in the newer charts. The IQ estimate has 3 source-backed benchmarks across 3 dimensions. Missing coverage may use scoring-only estimates; predecessor values are not new measurements. Sakana reports HLE (text), but its tool configuration and equivalence to the tracked HLE protocol are unverified. ProgramBench metric and DeepSWE version are also unverified; those values are not mapped into existing IQ or domain fields. Standard pricing is $5 input and $30 output per million tokens; above 272K context it is $10/$45. Orchestration tokens are billable. No measured orchestration usage is available for effective-cost estimation. Missing benchmark estimates follow the explicit Ultra predecessor chain. The versioned endpoint is distinct from the mutable fugu-ultra alias. The 1M-token context window and text/image inputs are documented in Sakana’s client model catalog; context length is not inferred from pricing thresholds.
