Artificial Analysis finds Beam uses ~26k output tokens per Intelligence Index task
Overview
Artificial Analysis reports that Beam uses about 26k output tokens per Intelligence Index task, about 19k for reasoning and 7k for final answers.
Only 26% of its output goes to answers, the 28th-lowest share among 219 models tested on Intelligence Index v4.3.
In a separate Coding Agent Index test, Artificial Analysis says Beam, running in Mirror, Reflection's open-source CLI harness, scores 28. That is 15 points behind Claude Code with Qwen3.8 Max (43) and 40 points behind the leaders (68). Artificial Analysis says only Codex with GPT-6 Astra and Codex with GPT-6.1 Sol use fewer tokens.
