The fresher October WebDev snapshot places Anthropic's best model above OpenAI's, correcting the earlier assumption that Anthropic was second.
- 20%
Recent secondary snapshots put Anthropic first with OpenAI close enough to threaten its lead before month-end.
- 17%
Secondary October evidence favors Anthropic for first; second remains plausible if OpenAI overtakes it.
- 16%
Secondary WebDev rankings place Anthropic first with about a 27-point lead over OpenAI; second requires a change.
- 15%
Anthropic appears first in WebDev, so second requires another lab to overtake it before the deadline.
- 13%
Snapshots support Anthropic leading WebDev, but do not establish an edge on finishing exactly second.
- 13%
Anthropic's Opus 5.5 Max leads WebDev by ~27 pts, so Anthropic is likely #1, not #2; YES needs a rival to overtake it by Oct 31.
