vLLM holds an Evidaxis momentum score of 58.8 of 100 on methodology m2, snapshot 2026-08-08, measured within the Inference & Serving cohort (n = 13). It is a mature incumbent included to calibrate the cohort, measured but not gate-eligible.
Derived signals
second-order reads, computed from the published series
Three signals ship when the commit series is statistically sufficient; the rest are held in a reserved state
until the data supports them. A reserved signal shows its reason, never a fabricated number.

Downstream packages depending on pypi/vllm (deps.dev), captured point-in-time each snapshot.
An adoption signal, not part of the momentum score.
Verdict
vLLM is a mature incumbent included to calibrate its cohort. It is measured but not badge-eligible.
