When there is no single right answer · 12 tasks
This site's own LLM features
How well the AI features on this very site behave — answering with real sources, refusing the things it should, and writing decent summaries.
Why it matters
Most real tasks have no one correct answer, so here a second AI grades the work against a rubric. It is your first look at the harder art of judging quality.
Sample data. These scores are from a zero-cost practice run with stand-in models — real, live numbers will replace them. The way the page works doesn't change.
The short version
Haiku 4.5 is the most accurate at 79%. It also gives the most right answers per dollar here.

New to this? Plain-words glossary
- Benchmark
- A fixed set of questions you give to different AI models so you can compare them fairly — the same test for everyone.
- Accuracy
- The share of questions the model got right. 90% means it answered 9 out of 10 correctly.
- Latency
- How long the model took to answer, in milliseconds. Lower is faster.
- Tokens & cost
- Models read and write in “tokens” (chunks of words). You pay per token, so more text means more money — that’s the cost column.
- GSM8K
- A famous set of grade-school math word problems used to test step-by-step reasoning.
- MMLU
- A broad multiple-choice exam spanning dozens of subjects, from history to physics — a standard knowledge test.
- LLM-as-judge
- When there’s no single right answer, a second, strong AI grades the first one’s response against a rubric.
- Embedding
- A way of turning text into a list of numbers so a computer can measure how similar two pieces of writing are — the engine behind semantic search.
- Recall@k
- Out of the documents that were actually relevant, how many showed up in the top k search results. Higher means the search found what you wanted.
- Temperature
- A dial for randomness. We set it to 0 so the model answers as consistently as possible, making the test repeatable.
For the curious
How this one works
How it runs
Each prompt runs against the model with a representative system prompt — a lightweight proxy for the live surface. A strong LLM judge then scores the answer against the rubric named in the item.
How it's scored
LLM-as-judge, on a 0 / 0.5 / 1 rubric scale. Judge verdicts are produced once by the runner, stored with the judge model and rationale, and shown as “judged” — they are never recomputed in the browser or CI.
Is the expensive one worth it?
Each dot is a model — accuracy up the side, cost along the bottom. Up and to the left is the sweet spot.

Where the points come from
The same scores, sliced by the kind of question — a strong overall number can hide a weak spot.

Every task, on the record
rechecking…The math, multiple-choice and retrieval scores below are recomputed from each stored model output by the same verifier CI runs — right now, in your browser. If a committed number ever disagreed with its raw output, its badge would read drift and the build would fail. Judge scores are shown as judged and are not recomputed.

The other tests
Classic right-or-wrong tests
Standard public benchmarksCan the model handle school-test questions — math word problems, general knowledge, simple logic — where there is exactly one right answer we can check automatically?
Explore →Smart vs fast vs cheap
Model comparisonThe same test given to three sizes of Claude at once, so you can see exactly what you give up — and save — when you pick a smaller, faster, cheaper model.
Explore →Finding the right page first
Embedding & retrieval qualityBefore a model can answer, it has to find the right document. This checks whether the search step actually surfaces the page you meant.
