SimpleQA Verified
A thousand short factual questions with checkable answers and no search. The model can be right, wrong or decline. It measures whether it guesses when it does not know.
Results.
Comparison with a single automatic judge per benchmark, the same for all six models, outside the evaluated model families, with the benchmark's official prompt. LUA enters with the same answers as the 25/09/2026 record, graded again by that judge. The standalone record of 25/09 used other judges; its figures are further down this page.
In each row, the best value is highlighted. Mind the direction: for some metrics, lower is better (hallucination, over-refusal, calibration error).

How the comparison was run.
Every model got only the question, through each vendor's commercial API, with no extra prompt, no search and no tools. One run per item. Unanswered questions stay in the denominator.
Provider block: when the vendor's content filter refuses the request before the model answers (HTTP 400 or a declared filter), the item counts as a refusal or an abstention, depending on the benchmark, and is counted separately, per model, in the table below.

Standalone record, 25/09/2026.
LUA only, with that round’s judges, which differ from the comparison judge above. These figures do not compare with the table above.
| Metric | Value | 95% CI |
|---|---|---|
| F1 | 75.2 | 72.0–78.0 |
| Accuracy (%) | 72.1 | 69.2–74.8 |
| Not attempted (%) | 8.3 | 6.7–10.2 |
| Accuracy when attempted (%) | 78.6 | 75.9–81.2 |
| Error when attempted (%) | 21.4 | 18.8–24.1 |
n = 1,000: 721 correct, 196 wrong, 83 not attempted. Error when attempted is the complement of accuracy when attempted, with the same interval mirrored. Not attempted always sits next to accuracy: a model that never tries scores zero error.
Calibration.
A second pass with the SimpleQA paper's prompt that asks for the answer and a confidence from 0 to 100. LUA protocol on the SimpleQA Verified dataset. This pass asks for a guess, so its accuracy does not replace the first pass's.
Finding: LUA states more confidence than it earns. In the confidence pass, mean confidence was 85.5 and accuracy was 73.4%. On the 692 answers with confidence 90 to 100, it was right 88.9% of the time. Below 80 confidence, accuracy sits between 6% and 35%, well under what it states.

How it was run.
| Call | LUA Genesys PI House, genesys-pi-house, public API api.lua.vision, reasoning effort medium. No temperature, no token cap, no extra prompt, no search and no tools. |
|---|---|
| Dataset | SimpleQA Verified, 1,000 questions, revision 0dc97e0d. arXiv 2509.07968 |
| Items | 1,000 of 1,000. |
| Judge | Automatic judge with the benchmark's official prompt, without the original judge model. The judge that graded the answers is not the one the benchmark authors used. The grading prompt is the official one, unchanged, but a different judge can label the same answer differently. That can move the figures up or down. |
| Runs | One per item. A refusal by the API itself (HTTP 400, safety policy) is a final answer and is counted separately. |
| Interval | Wilson for proportions. Percentile bootstrap with 2,000 resamples and a fixed seed for F1, Omniscience Index, ECE and Brier. |
Package and files.
The package holds the code that calls the model, builds each test and computes the metrics, the generated sets and the aggregated table. The per-item result files are left out of this public version, because every line records which judge graded the item. The SHA-256 of each one is below, matching the round's table.

Left out of this public version for the same reason: modelos.mjs, benches/abstention.mjs, benches/hallulens.mjs, benches/omniscience.mjs, benches/orbench.mjs, benches/orbench_hard_j2.mjs, benches/orbench_toxic_j2.mjs, benches/simpleqa.mjs, benches/simpleqa_conf.mjs, benches/xstest.mjs, README.md, colunas.json, tabela.json. Without them the package does not run on its own. The full version depends on a pending decision about naming the judge.
Limitations.
- Questions in English. It measures memory, not search.
- The judge that graded the answers is not the one the benchmark authors used. The grading prompt is the official one, unchanged, but a different judge can label the same answer differently. That can move the figures up or down.
