releaseDate from Factory's 2025-09-25 post saying Droid is 'available across all interfaces today'. Its 58.75% (Opus 4.1), 52.5% (GPT-5), 50.5% (Sonnet 4) were on the older Terminal-Bench Core v0.1.1 board and are not on tbench.ai's current 4.0 leaderboard, so not in scores. factory.ai now redirects to factory.com.
