# Model benchmarks

> Find the models that answer as well as yours, for less, on your own calls.

A benchmark takes the calls of one of your [call names](/api/gateway/responses#weflayr-fields), replays them on other models, and has [evaluators](/product/evaluators) compare each answer with your current model's. It then recommends the models that keep your quality, ready to become a [routing strategy](/product/routing-strategies).

<Note>
  A benchmark replays your prompts, so your calls must keep their content (the default, see `store_message_content` on the [gateway](/api/gateway/responses#weflayr-fields)). It is paid from your [credits](/product/credits).

## Benchmark list

Each benchmark shows its status (Draft, Running, Stopped, Completed, Archived), its recommendation and the routing strategies made from it. From a row's menu, continue a draft, stop or resume a run, export a finished benchmark as a CSV, or archive it.
