jevbench (Leanmcp)

Open framework and preprint benchmarking typed decision models such as Jev, pplx-decider, Liquid D1 and Clef in six clusters.

Benchmarkresearch

Overview

JevBench (Leanmcp) is an open framework for benchmarking typed decision models, accompanied by a preprint, a website and a Hugging Face dataset. It scores models across datasets grouped into six clusters (science, tool calling, business, selection, ranking and judging), normalises each dataset to 0 to 100, averages within clusters, and averages the clusters into a single JevBench Index. Models whose APIs reject some datasets, for example because of too many options or unsupported question types, score zero on those.

In the results table, pplx-decider v1.1 leads with an index of 78.0, followed by Liquid D1 at 77.4 (on five of six clusters), Mercury Decide at 76.6 and Jev 1.13 at 76.5, with Clef, Microsoft Decision 1, GPT-6 Luna Decisions, djev-0.1, Clef-omni, Clef-flash and Kev 4B close behind. Jev scored highest of the listed models on the science cluster (82.5) in that table. Ranking was the weakest cluster across models, mostly in the mid-50s. The listing describes the task set as 12 tasks covering Liquid D1, Jev, djev and Laya among others.

What the decision model decides

How it works

  1. Run each model on the benchmark datasets
  2. Normalise per dataset to 0-100
  3. Average within six clusters, then across clusters
  4. Publish the JevBench Index and per-cluster scores

Strengths

  • Covers many hosted and open decision models
  • Cluster breakdown shows strengths and weaknesses
  • Preprint and public dataset

Caveats

  • Some models unscored on some clusters
  • Unsupported question types count as zero, which penalises narrower APIs

Frequently asked questions

Which model leads?

pplx-decider v1.1 at 78.0 in the README's table, with Jev 1.13 at 76.5.

Where does Jev do best?

Science, at 82.5 in the table.

Is this the same as Benchmark Heaven's JevBench?

No, it is a separate benchmark from Leanmcp with its own index.
