Capability shape
Seven axes from the ranking source. A missing axis is drawn as a gap.
Runtime service evidence
Measured values with the date they were observed. Nothing is inferred from a sibling model or a provider claim.
Time to first token: latency to the first answer chunk (Artificial Analysis, via BenchLM). Reasoning models include thinking time, so values can run to tens or hundreds of seconds.

Regional or per-endpoint measurements appear only when the API supplies them; none are modelled here.
Endpoint and price matrix
Every published price component, including cache reads and writes.
| Component | USD | Evidence |

| Input / 1M tokens | $0.60 | |
| Output / 1M tokens | $1.80 | |
| Cache read / 1M tokens | Unavailable | |
| Cache write / 1M tokens | Unavailable | |
| Blended / 1M (75% input / 25% output) | $0.90 |
Self-hosted listingMultiverse Computing's CompactifAI pricing table lists `quasar-438b` at $0.60 per million input tokens and $1.80 per million output tokens. The first-party model catalog marks that API ID available. The 1M context field follows the supplied independent model profile because the first-party model page does not yet publish an exact context limit.The rates above are a hosted price matched from another provider, not a first-party list price.
Workload-aware monthly cost example
10 conversations per day × 8 messages × 22 active days, 1200 input and 400 output tokens per message, no cache. This uses the same calculator as the cost simulator, so an unavailable applicable rate makes the example unavailable too.

Lifecycle and limitations log
Lifecycle events the source associates with this model, plus what this profile does not claim.
What this profile does not claimValues are reproduced exactly as their sources published them, in the units those sources declared; none are converted, interpolated, or averaged across providers. Any field marked unavailable was attempted and not returned — the attempt timestamp is in each badge. Last attempted fetch for this model’s score: 2026-09-17 18:17 UTC.
