Vals SAGE (SAGE)
Student Assessment with Generative Evaluation
Data verified 24 confirmed releases in the last 30 daysStart free briefHow BenchLM shows SAGE
BenchLM mirrors the public Vals AI SAGE leaderboard captured from https://www.vals.ai/benchmarks/sage and updated by Vals on August 19, 2026. The snapshot preserves overall scores, uncertainty, latency, cost-per-test metadata, and task-level scores where Vals publishes them.
SAGE is display only on BenchLM. Vals proprietary or Vals-hosted aggregate views are useful context, but BenchLM does not use them as weighted ranking inputs or as a replacement for benchmark-native source records.
Snapshot
SAGE score on SAGE — August 19, 2026
We mirror the published sage score view for SAGE. Claude Opus 4.7 leads the public snapshot at 56.10%, followed by Gemma 4 31b It (55.03%) and Claude Opus 4.8 (54.79%). We do not use these results to rank models overall.

SAGE score table (77 models)
ScoreThe published SAGE snapshot places Claude Opus 4.7 first at 56.10%. The third row is 1.32 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 4.53 points, so many of the published results sit in a relatively narrow band.
77 models have been evaluated on SAGE. The benchmark falls in the External benchmark mirrors category. We keep external benchmark mirrors separate from the weighted global scoring system, so these results remain source-specific evidence. SAGE is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
