Benchmarks

Name Kind Released Best score Status
SWE-bench Verified 500 human-validated GitHub issues from 12 Python repos. Agent writes a patch that must pass hidden tests. Fixing real repositories Aug 2024 83.5% In use
CharXiv Chart understanding on real arXiv figures. Reasoning questions require synthesizing information from complex charts. Documents, charts and text in images Jun 2024 93.5% In use
COLLIE Models generate text that meets compositional constraints at word, sentence, paragraph, and passage level. Scored by the share passing automatic constraint checks. Following precise instructions Jul 2023 99% Fading
SUNRGBD Models detect objects in about 10,000 indoor RGB-D images and predict their 3D bounding boxes. Scored by average precision. Detection and captioning Jun 2015 48.3 Fading
CharXiv (DQ) Models answer descriptive questions about charts from arXiv papers, such as titles, axis labels and legend entries. It is the descriptive half of CharXiv. Documents, charts and text in images Jun 2024 95% System cards only
HELMET Models handle long-context tasks in seven groups including recall, RAG, re-ranking, many-shot learning, long QA and summarization, at set input lengths. Reasoning over long documents Oct 2024 55.7% Dropped
InterCode-CTF Agents solve 100 picoCTF capture-the-flag challenges in an interactive Bash and Python environment. Capture-the-flag challenges Jun 2023 98.7% System cards only
SpatialSense VQA Models judge whether a stated spatial relation between two objects holds in an image. The relations were crowdsourced to defeat simple cues. Spatial reasoning and counting Aug 2019 60% Dropped
HorizonMath Models attack 113 mostly unsolved problems in eight areas of mathematics and the mathematical sciences. A program checks each proposed closed form, construction or bound. Research mathematics Mar 2026 11.5% In use
SORRY-Bench Models get unsafe requests across a fine-grained taxonomy of topics and linguistic variations. A judge model scores whether each answer refuses or complies. Refusing harmful requests Jun 2024 5.23% Not in cards
CEO-Bench Agents steer a simulated AI startup for 500 days, gathering noisy information and adapting plans. The outcome of the simulated company is the score. Multi-agent games Jun 2026 $22,148,357 Not in cards
AlgoTune Agents rewrite code for 154 math, physics, and computer science functions to run faster and stay correct. Scoring is harmonic mean speedup over reference code. Speed and optimization Jul 2025 2.05× Not in cards
CORE-Bench Agents reproduce the results of published studies from their code and data. 270 tasks from 90 papers in computer science, social science and medicine come in three difficulty levels. Research science Sep 2024 77.8% Not in cards
SWE-bench Lite Models resolve 300 self-contained GitHub issues chosen from SWE-bench to cut evaluation cost. Hidden repository tests decide each patch. Fixing real repositories Mar 2024 60.3% Not in cards
AutoLab Agents start from a correct but weak baseline and improve it within a fixed wall-clock budget by measuring, editing and measuring again. The 36 tasks span system optimization, puzzles, model development and CUDA kernels, such as scaling-law fitting, radix sort and FlashAttention. Each task scores the measured improvement, averaged over three runs. Machine learning engineering Jun 2026 0.68 Not in cards
SWE-bench Models resolve 2,294 real GitHub issues from 12 Python repositories. A patch counts as resolved when the hidden repository tests pass. Fixing real repositories Oct 2023 52.6% Not in cards
DiG-bench Agents play text-only games whose transformation rules and win conditions are hidden, so they must discover the rules by experimenting. Every game was beaten by at least one human on a first attempt. Puzzles and chess Aug 2026 71.4% Not in cards
FutureX Agents predict upcoming events collected daily from 195 websites in 11 domains, within a one-week window. Answers are scored once real results are crawled, with harder tiers weighted more. Real-world events Aug 2025 27.9 Not in cards
τ^τ-bench Coding agent builds a customer-service agent from business records, a client and an API. The built agent is scored against held-out simulated users. Building whole projects Sep 2026 23.9% Not in cards
USACO Models solve 307 USA Computing Olympiad problems. Hidden unit tests check correctness and efficiency, scored as pass@1. Competitive programming Apr 2024 2.61% Not in cards
AQuA Two LLM research loops (factor discovery, model development) reuse evidence from their own past experiments inside sealed sandboxes. Scored by IC and held-out Sharpe. AI research tasks Aug 2026 Not in cards
WebShop Agents search and click through a simulated shopping site with 1.18 million real products to buy an item that matches a text instruction. Reward reflects how well the purchase matches. Web browsing Jul 2022 Not in cards
