WideSearch

WideSearch is a benchmark for how well a model acts as a general-purpose agent. The official description says: "WideSearch - agentic web search benchmark". Below we describe in simple words what benchmarks of this type generally examine.

WideSearch measures how well a model acts as a general-purpose agent. In detail, it checks:

• solving long, multi-step tasks with many intermediate decisions
• using tools correctly (browsers, terminals, APIs, calendars, other apps)
• adapting when something unexpected happens mid-task
• staying on goal over long task horizons instead of wandering off

The score is accuracy: the percentage of tasks answered or solved correctly. 100% means every task was solved perfectly; higher is better.

What is the WideSearch benchmark?

WideSearch is a benchmark for how well a model acts as a general-purpose agent. The official description says: 'WideSearch - agentic web search benchmark'. Below we describe in simple words what benchmarks of this type generally examine.

What does WideSearch test?

WideSearch mainly measures how well a model acts as a general-purpose agent. Concretely, it checks: solving long, multi-step tasks with many intermediate decisions; using tools correctly (browsers, terminals, APIs, calendars, other apps); adapting when something unexpected happens mid-task.

How is the WideSearch score calculated?

The score is accuracy: the percentage of tasks answered or solved correctly. 100% means every task was solved perfectly; higher is better. The declared maximum score of this benchmark is 100.0.
