Merge launches Fusion, a product that sends one prompt to a panel of models and uses a judge to synthesize the final answer.
The company says Fusion:
- beats Fable 5 at one-quarter of the cost
- reaches the highest score on the DRACO benchmark
- offers a Python SDK for developers
The accompanying chart shows Fusion positioned above competing model configurations on DRACO while keeping task cost lower, with the product split into an open panel option and a premium tier.
