@arena posts Pareto Frontier for Agent Arena scatter plot

A scatter plot of AI models by cost and performance drew 48.1K views and a 0.54% engagement rate on August 19, 2026.

What happened

@arena posted a scatter plot titled Pareto Frontier for Agent Arena on August 19, 2026. It was the account's only post that day.

The numbers

It reached 48.1K views, #545 of 1,162 AI chart posts, against a 39.9K median among AI chart posts. Its score of 50 ranks #630 of 1,162 AI chart posts.

The lesson

A scatter plot at 2.1x the median views for its type still posted a 0.54% engagement rate against a 0.78% median for that type. The 0.11% save rate, at the 68th percentile, is the number that held above the median.

What it means

At #151 of 239 @arena posts, this chart sits below the account's own score rank pattern while its 0.11% save rate clears the 0.076% median among AI chart posts. The 48.1K views against a 0.54% engagement rate leave the reach and the response apart.
