Vals AI composite benchmark across finance and coding tasks, including Finance Agent v2, CorpFin v2, SWE-bench, Terminal-Bench 2.0, and Vibe Code Bench.
BenchLM mirrors the public Vals AI Vals Index leaderboard captured from https://www.vals.ai/benchmarks/vals_index and updated by Vals on May 18, 2026. The snapshot preserves overall scores, uncertainty, latency, cost-per-test metadata, and task-level scores where Vals publishes them.
Vals Index 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.
BenchLM mirrors the published vals index score view for Vals Index. GPT-5.5 leads the public snapshot at 67.62% , followed by Claude Opus 4.7 (66.10%) and Gemini 3.5 Flash (62.05%). BenchLM does not use these results to rank models overall.

The published Vals Index snapshot is tightly clustered at the top: GPT-5.5 sits at 67.62%, while the third row is only 5.57 points behind. The broader top-10 spread is 18.31 points, so the benchmark still separates strong models even when the leaders cluster.
17 models have been evaluated on Vals Index. The benchmark falls in the External benchmark mirrors category. BenchLM tracks this category separately from its weighted global scoring system, so these results are best compared on the dedicated Korean benchmark views. Vals Index is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
