TL;DR

DeepResearch Bench is a knowledge benchmark tracked on BenchGecko. Tests ability to conduct in-depth research on complex topics, requiring synthesis of multiple sources.

Level 1

Tests ability to conduct in-depth research on complex topics, requiring synthesis of multiple sources.

Level 2

Scores are reported (%, maximum 100); higher is better. BenchGecko collects DeepResearch Bench scores from Epoch AI and refreshes them daily; the leaderboard on this page shows the current top models.

Level 3

Compare models only on the same benchmark version and settings. A benchmark separates models well while scores are spread out; when top models bunch together near the maximum, it stops telling them apart.
