OCR API with a published accuracy benchmark

Default pickMistral OCR 3

Mistral OCR 3 is the only flagship OCR API here with a published independent OmniDocBench composite (79.75); the other hosted APIs have no Tier-1 benchmark score, so their cells are left blank rather than guessed. With just one data point this is not a most-accurate ranking, and OmniDocBench is saturated at the top where open self-hostable models lead, not hosted APIs. A light estimate, not a first-hand measurement.

* token-/credit-priced — the headline understates real per-unit cost, so it is excluded from the cheapest ranking.
