Only in system cards

Models prove or disprove theorems from recent arXiv papers, stated in Lean 4. A strict comparator checks each submitted proof against the fixed reference statement.

The first set held 41 theorems from March 2026 papers, and the best systems proved about 17 percent. Later sets came in June and September 2026.

Labs report it only in system cards

We read the headline results of 522 launch posts from 52 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.

One system card reports it

Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
