I kept running into new benchmarks while doing benchmark research, so I built a
crawler that continuously collects benchmark-related signals from across the
web. It pulls evidence from 39 public sources every day, and keeps updating.
**Find a benchmark in seconds, then see how model scores change over time. Click
the GIF below to watch SWE-bench Verified move toward saturation.**
## See the dashboard
**Today: everything that showed up in the last 24 hours, scored and ranked, plus
a short daily briefing that says what changed and links the evidence it used.**
**Benchmark Frontier: which difficult benchmarks have been tested most?
Compare reported scores, release dates and the number of models tested.**
Model reports, OpenCompass Hub, Artificial Analysis and LLM Stats feed one
catalog. Each record keeps its scores, test conditions and citations.
## Use it
- **[Open the dashboard](https://benchmark-radar.org/)** — today's findings, benchmark trends, scores and model coverage
- **[Query it locally](https://benchmark-radar.org/cli/)** — install and use the offline CLI
- **[Subscribe via RSS](https://benchmark-radar.org/feed.xml)** — get new benchmark signals every day
- **[Download the complete dataset](https://github.com/ktwu01/benchmark-radar/releases/download/cli-data/benchmark-radar-data.zip)** — the benchmark catalog, detail records and daily discovery snapshots in one ZIP
- **[Contribute](CONTRIBUTING.md)** — add benchmarks, model cards, sources, or fixes
If Benchmark Radar saves you research time, **[star the repository](https://github.com/ktwu01/benchmark-radar)**. It helps other eval builders find it.
## Query it locally (CLI version)
```bash
npx skills add ktwu01/benchmark-radar
```
Then ask your coding agent about benchmarks. It installs the command-line tool
and downloads the data to your computer the first time you ask. What it does is
written in the
[setup and usage guide](https://github.com/ktwu01/benchmark-radar/blob/main/skills/benchmark-radar/SKILL.md).

## Abstract
Benchmark researchers and developers of large language models (LLMs) and other
AI systems need to find relevant evaluations, locate their benchmark datasets
and code, and understand the settings behind reported scores. Benchmark Radar
is a living database and search engine for retrieval and discovery of AI
benchmarks, covering LLM evaluation, agentic and tool-use benchmarks, coding,
reasoning, safety, and domain-specific evaluations. It combines daily discovery
of benchmark papers, repositories, datasets and releases with a searchable
benchmark catalog, mentions in model cards and technical reports, and score
histories. It retains source identities and citations so readers can inspect
candidate benchmarks and their evaluation evidence.
Daily discovery draws on 39 sources: 15 direct connectors and 24 first-party
research and engineering feeds. The catalog collects source records from four
benchmark catalogs, with numeric score observations on the records that carry
them. The project publishes the web dashboard with a benchmark leaderboard, a
Pareto frontier view of score against measured use, saturation and trend views,
daily feeds, downloadable evidence, a command-line interface (CLI) for offline
queries, and reproducible analysis.
This summarizes the
[technical report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.11115),
which describes collection and retrieval, audits the full catalog, and examines
benchmark saturation, adoption trends, and the limits of score comparisons.
