RekaReka Flash 3
Reka Flash 3 is a Reka open-weights reasoning model, released 10 Mar 2025. Its best configuration ranks #702 of 785 on the BenchLeader Index at 38.9 ±4.2, in the lower half. The ± is the point: 228 other configurations score within that range, so they and this one cannot be told apart on quality alone — price and speed are what separate them. It scores highest in reasoning (41) and lowest in long context (23). At $0.350 per million tokens blended it is cheaper than most ranked models. Output speed of 88 tokens per second puts it faster than most, with a first answer in 24.2 s. Last measured 10 Mar 2025.stale: no new result in six months

Versions
Reka has shipped 2 models under this name. Each is ranked on its own results; a newer version often has fewer results so far, which holds its index nearer the average until more arrive.

How its index has moved
9 Sept 2026 to 21 Oct 2026The index is recomputed from scratch every day, so a line moves when a new benchmark result lands, when a publisher revises a score, or when the models it is normalised against change. Early movement usually means the score is still settling.
