Open vs proprietary: how big is the gap?
The best open-weight model is glm-5.3-max by Z.ai (Zhipu) at 1,487, 23 points behind the best proprietary model, claude-fable-5.1-max by Anthropic at 1,510. Their 95% confidence intervals overlap, so the data cannot separate them.
19 proprietary models rank above the best open-weight model, and 1 of the top 20 is open-weight.
Open-weight here means any license other than Proprietary, including licenses with usage limits. It is a broader definition than the OSI one.

Text arena by category
How to read this leaderboard
This category filters the text arena to prompts written in Polish. It measures which model people prefer when they ask in that language, which can differ from the English ranking.
- Scores come from blind votes
- LMArena shows a person two anonymous answers to the same prompt and asks which is better. Those head-to-head votes are fitted with a Bradley-Terry model, the statistical successor to Elo, to give each model one arena score. On the Elo scale LMArena uses, a 100-point lead means the higher model is expected to win about 64% of matchups.
- Confidence intervals decide ties
- Every score carries a 95% confidence interval. When two intervals overlap, the order of those two models is not settled. LMArena's rank column already accounts for this, which is why more than one model can hold the same rank.
- Why it differs from usage share
- A high rank does not mean many people use a model. Usage depends on price, distribution and habit. For adoption rather than quality, see AI market share.
Methodology and source
All rankings are read from the LMArena leaderboard dataset on Hugging Face, published by LMArena (formerly Chatbot Arena) under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. Credit for the underlying votes, scores and confidence intervals belongs to LMArena. Essentras is not affiliated with LMArena.
This page reads the text_style_control subset, category polish, from the dataset's latest split. Scores, intervals, ranks, vote counts and license labels are shown as published. Essentras adds the grouping by lab and the derived figures on this page: gaps, lab shares, open vs proprietary and, on the main page, the history of who held #1.
Data refreshes automatically every 2 days. If the source cannot be reached, the page falls back to the last saved copy and says so at the top. Models are never merged or renamed; model and lab names appear exactly as LMArena publishes them.
Open-weight means any license other than Proprietary. History is limited to what the dataset records: the style-controlled text leaderboard from August 28, 2024. We do not scrape any other ranking site.
