Too close to call

It is close. Our weighted score puts them within a point (Nex-N2-Pro 57/100, MAI-Code-1.1-Flash 56/100, MAI-Code-1-Flash 41/100), so choose by what matters most for your work: Nex-N2-Pro on price and Nex-N2-Pro for long inputs. The score weighs inputs & features 60%, context window 40%. None of the shared benchmarks cover every model here yet, so capability is left out of this verdict.
