AI Model Latency Benchmarks

Representative latency and throughput figures for common AI models, to illustrate how providers compare. These are reference numbers, not a live feed.

These figures are representative reference values from standardized prompts, not a live measurement. Real-world latency varies by region, prompt size, and provider load. Run your own numbers with RelayPlane on your machine.

Methodology

  • •Standardized prompts: Short prompts (~50 tokens) with ~100 token responses
  • •Sample size: 10 requests per model per run
  • •Reference figures: Illustrative values, not a real-time feed
  • •Reproduce it yourself: Run the same prompts through RelayPlane with your own keys (BYOK) to measure your real latency

API Access

Access benchmark data programmatically:

GET https://api.relayplane.com/api/v1/benchmarks

Returns JSON with the reference benchmark figures shown above. No authentication required.

Route to the fastest model automatically

RelayPlane can automatically select the fastest provider for your workflows based on real-time benchmarks.
