Maximo Atlas Preview Is Live on Cencori

Maximo Atlas Preview is live on Cencori.
Built by Maximo AI in Nigeria, Atlas is an Opus-class proprietary coding and agent model available now — completely free during the preview period. It delivers competitive benchmark results across software engineering, browsing, tool use, and reasoning, at a fraction of the cost of comparable frontier models.
From today, you can target maximo-atlas-preview across the entire Cencori stack.
Why This Matters
Atlas is the first Opus-class model built by an African AI team. It holds its own against frontier alternatives on benchmarks like TerminalBench (75.0%), SWE-bench Pro (61.0%), and BrowseComp (84.0%), while costing dramatically less — $0.20/$1.00 per 1M tokens after preview, and completely free until July 21.
For Cencori users, this means a capable reasoning and coding model with no cost barrier during the preview window, and a strong budget option afterward.
