How to read this leaderboard
Compare the published configurations as complete evaluation systems. The source can combine a base model, agent scaffold, tools, budget, and inference setting in each result.
Operator receipt: 63 sourced rows are currently displayable on this page; the leading published row is Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental (March 2025) at 54.6%.
Honest limit: This Scale table is display-only context, not benchmark provenance or a weighted model-only comparison.
How BenchLM shows Visual-Language Understanding
BenchLM mirrors 63 published rows from Scale Labs’ public Visual-Language Understanding leaderboard, captured on November 12, 2026 snapshot.
The table is display only. It is useful context for a published agent or model configuration, but it does not enter BenchLM’s overall or category rankings. Scale has not added a row to this board since March 2026.
Snapshot
The published Visual-Language Understanding snapshot places Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental (March 2025) first at 54.6%. The third row is 0.8 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 3.9 points, so many of the published results sit in a relatively narrow band.
63 models have been evaluated on Visual-Language Understanding. The benchmark falls in the Multimodal & Grounded category. We keep external benchmark mirrors separate from the weighted global scoring system, so these results remain source-specific evidence. Visual-Language Understanding is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
