Compare RPC providers on measured data
The top 4 on the chosen chain are compared by default. Pick your own — up to 4 — and the selection moves into the URL, so a comparison can be sent to someone else and they will see exactly what you saw.

Where the gap comes from
Two scores side by side say one is higher. This says why: the score is a weighted sum, so it comes apart, and each component’s share of the difference adds back to the difference exactly. Compared against dRPC, the highest scorer of those selected.
