Complex Workflow (ByteDance Seed in-house)
Models carry out step-by-step tasks that follow a given standard operating procedure, such as multi-turn after-sales service in support, sales and healthcare.
One of six in-house application sets in the Seed1.8 and Seed2.0 model cards. Scoring is a guess.

Seed2.0 Pro leads with 64.7%
Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

| # | Model | Score | Setting | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | | 64.7% | Feb 2026 | Lab model card | |
| 2 | | 54.6% | Dec 2025 | Lab model card |
2 models have held number one in labs’ own numbers since its release in December 2025
Lab claims count from the day the card came out, independent runs from the model’s release.

Scores over time
All the scores we have, one dot each, so a model tested at several settings appears more than once.

Labs headline it less often now, last in December 2025
Launch posts from every lab that has listed it, one tick per post. Tall colored ticks include it, and short gray ones leave it out.
| Date | Launch post | Score | As the post writes it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 18, 2025 | 54.6 | Complex Workflow |
2 system cards report it, from 1 lab
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.

- IFEval In use Models answer about 500 prompts containing verifiable instructions such as word limits or required keywords. Code checks each instruction for strict and loose accuracy.
Gemma 4 31B IT 98.9%
- IFBench In use 58 new out-of-domain verifiable output constraints. Scored by programmatic constraint checks (strict or loose).
Nemotron-Cascade 2 30B-A3B 82.9%
- MultiChallenge In use Multi-turn conversations testing instruction retention, inference memory, versioned editing and self-coherence. Graded by LLM judge with rubrics. GPT-6.1 Sol 82%
- Multi-IF In use Models follow verifiable instructions over three-turn conversations in eight languages, extending IFEval. Scored by instruction accuracy at each turn. LFM3-1.7B 89.1%
- AdvancedIF In use Models respond to over 1,600 prompts with complex, multi-turn, and system-level instructions. A judge model checks each response against expert-written rubrics.
MAI-Thinking-1 85%
- IFStruct In use Models generate JSON or YAML that must follow a requested schema and phrasing constraints, without constrained decoding. A response passes only if every structural constraint holds.
