Why it matters
Evaluate and compare the performance of leading AI models from various providers on Azure AI Foundry. Understand which models excel for different tasks and make informed decisions for your AI deployments.
Outcomes
What it gets done
Benchmark OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Meta Llama, and Mistral models.
Analyze model outputs for consistency and quality.
Identify optimal models for specific use cases.
Facilitate multi-provider AI model selection.

Overview
Comparison
A promptfoo example that benchmarks GPT-5.1, Claude Sonnet, Llama 4 Maverick, and Mistral Large deployed on Azure AI Foundry against the same test questions. Use to compare model quality and cost across providers on Azure AI Foundry, or to A/B test a model update. Not applicable if you call providers directly rather than through Azure AI Foundry.
What it does
This is a promptfoo example (azure/comparison) that benchmarks models from four different providers deployed on Azure AI Foundry in a single evaluation run: OpenAI's gpt-5.1, Anthropic's claude-sonnet-4-6, Meta's Llama-4-Maverick-17B-128E-Instruct-FP8, and Mistral's Mistral-Large-2411. Each is labeled (gpt-5.1, claude-sonnet, llama-4, mistral-large) and run against the same test questions so results are directly comparable.
When to use - and when NOT to
Use it to benchmark different models hosted on Azure AI Foundry on your own tasks, evaluate cost-effectiveness across providers, pick the best model for a use case, or A/B test a model update. It is specific to Azure-hosted deployments, so it does not apply if your models are called directly through each provider's own API rather than through Azure AI Foundry.
Inputs and outputs
Input is promptfooconfig.yaml, edited to add or remove models, change test questions, or adjust evaluation criteria, plus an AZURE_API_KEY and an apiHost set per provider's Azure deployment. Output is a side-by-side comparison of the configured models, viewable in promptfoo's web UI.
npx promptfoo@latest init --example azure/comparison
cd azure/comparison
Who it's for
Teams running multiple model providers through Azure AI Foundry who need to compare quality and cost before choosing or switching a model.
Source README
azure/comparison (Azure Model Comparison)
This example demonstrates how to compare models from different providers on Azure AI Foundry, including OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Meta Llama, and Mistral.
You can run this example with:
npx promptfoo@latest init --example azure/comparison
cd azure/comparison
Setup
- Deploy models from different providers in Azure AI Foundry
- Set your environment variables:
export AZURE_API_KEY=your-api-key
# Set apiHost in promptfooconfig.yaml for each provider's deployment
Models Compared
| Provider | Model | Label |
|---|---|---|
| OpenAI | gpt-5.1 |
gpt-5.1 |
| Anthropic | claude-sonnet-4-6 |
claude-sonnet |
| Meta | Llama-4-Maverick-17B-128E-Instruct-FP8 |
llama-4 |
| Mistral | Mistral-Large-2411 |
mistral-large |
Running the Example
npx promptfoo@latest eval
npx promptfoo@latest view
