What this score means

On SWE-bench Verified, GPT-5.2 Nano sits at #268 of 600. The leader, GPT-5.2 Pro, scores 81.7, so the gap to the top is 19.3 points. The median model in this index scores 61.0, which puts GPT-5.2 Nano above the midpoint.

OpenAI models average 72.7 on this benchmark. GPT-5.2 Nano is 10.3 points below that provider line, so it is a weaker result than the average OpenAI model.

Among multimodal models, the average is 66.4. GPT-5.2 Nano is 4.0 points below that group. This is the more useful comparison if you are shortlisting within the same tier rather than across the whole index.

Read a 62.4 as a relative signal, not an absolute guarantee. Benchmark scores depend on prompt format, evaluation harness and contamination controls. Use this page to narrow the shortlist, then test the model on your own data.
