This page is the HumanEval leaderboard. Models are sorted by HumanEval, with input and output token prices on the same row so you can weigh score against cost. Official boards often omit price; that comparison is the point of this index.
The official HumanEval page owns the methodology. This page keeps the published HumanEval score next to live API $/M so you can pick a production SKU, not only a trophy number. Source: https://github.com/openai/human-eval
