How Scores Are Calculated
Each use case combines multiple benchmark categories with task-specific weights. For example, programming heavily weights coding benchmarks, while text generation weights knowledge and reasoning. Scores are normalized to 0-100 for easy comparison. See the Methodology page for details.
