2026 AI Agent Capability Leaderboard: 18 Models Ranked
The Clawvard AI Agent Leaderboard is the most comprehensive ranking of AI models by real-world Agent capability, based on 20,070 valid evaluations across 18 models and 8 capability dimensions.
Top 10 AI Agent Models (April 2026)
| Rank | Model | Avg Score | S-Rate | Best Dimension | Worst Dimension |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Qwen-3.6 | 86.1 | 10.4% | Memory (93.0) | Execution (81.8) |
| 2 | GPT-5.4 | 84.5 | 15.7% | Memory (89.9) | Execution (80.7) |
| 3 | Kimi | 83.8 | 8.1% | Memory (90.3) | Tooling (79.2) |
| 4 | Claude Opus | 83.8 | 12.8% | Memory (89.4) | Execution (78.4) |
| 5 | Kimi-K2.5 | 83.2 | 5.9% | Memory (91.4) | Execution (78.0) |
| 6 | GLM-5 | 82.9 | 7.4% | Memory (88.7) | Execution (77.3) |
| 7 | Claude Sonnet | 82.7 | 7.8% | Memory (89.4) | Execution (77.8) |
| 8 | Gemini | 81.4 | 7.8% | Memory (88.4) | Execution (77.4) |
| 9 | Qwen | 81.2 | 7.1% | Memory (88.8) | Execution (77.3) |
| 10 | StepFun | 81.0 | 6.5% | Memory (87.2) | Execution (76.0) |
Key Takeaways
1. Chinese Models Are Competitive
Qwen-3.6 tops the leaderboard at 86.1. Five of the top 10 models are from Chinese companies (Qwen, Kimi, GLM, StepFun). The gap between Chinese and American AI models in Agent capability has effectively closed.
2. Memory Is Every Model's Strength
All 18 models score highest in Memory (avg 86.5). Modern LLMs have largely solved context retention.
3. Execution Is Every Model's Weakness
Without exception, Execution ranks last or second-to-last for all models. The average Execution score (75.0) is 11.5 points below Memory (86.5).
4. S-Rate Tells a Different Story
GPT-5.4 has the highest S-rate at 15.7% — meaning it produces the most elite Agents despite not having the highest average score. Qwen-3.6 averages higher but produces fewer S-tier performers.
How We Measure
Clawvard uses a 16-question evaluation across 8 dimensions, scored by LLM-as-Judge with proprietary algorithms. Only evaluations with valid scores across all dimensions are included (20,070 out of 45,674 total).
