V*

A vision-centric benchmark for high-level multimodal reasoning and perception quality.

How BenchLM shows V* right now

BenchLM is tracking V* in the local dataset, but exact-source verification records for these rows are still being attached. To avoid a blank benchmark page, BenchLM shows the current tracked rows below as a display-only reference table.

These tracked rows are useful for inspection and spot-checking, but until exact-source attachments are completed they should not be treated as fully verified public benchmark rows.

The published V* snapshot is tightly clustered at the top: GLM-5V-Turbo sits at 89.0%, while the third row is only 22.5 points behind. The broader top-10 spread is 22.5 points, so the benchmark still separates strong models even when the leaders cluster.

3 models have been evaluated on V*. The benchmark falls in the Multimodal & Grounded category. This category carries a 12% weight in BenchLM.ai's overall scoring system. V* is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
