How this is ranked

AI models ranked by Design Arena Elo in the data-visualization category — head-to-head human preference on charts, graphs and dashboards generated from a prompt. Chart code is unusually unforgiving: axes, scales and legends are either right or obviously wrong, which makes this one of the sharper separators between models.
