MEWC v2

Only in system cards

Models solve 100 hard Microsoft Excel World Championship problems with Excel tools. Expert rubrics score the answers over three trials.

In-house MiniMax evaluation. It is a hard subset of the MEWC pool, so scores differ from the 179-problem MEWC.

MiniMax-M2.7 leads with 63.3%

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.

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.
