AI Model Performance
Calibrated simulators land within about 5–10 points of reality and rank policies almost identically (SIMPLER r = 0.92, PolaRiS r = 0.90). An off-the-shelf benchmark score can sit 30–40 points above what the same model does on a real arm.
No model or company matches.
What changed
- Ten more variants from seven papers (LOGIV, R2A, QbD-VLA, VLA-Stem, JAM, behaviour context, movement-primitive chunking), built on π0.5, π0, GR00T N1.7, OpenVLA-OFT, Fast-WAM and ACT. Each checked against its paper’s own tables.
- New: third-party leaderboards. Ten groups that run robot models themselves, real robot and simulation, with where our scorecard models rank on each.
- Model pages now list variants: published work built on a model, with its results next to the base model measured in the same paper. First six papers added, built on π0, π0.5, SmolVLA, GR00T N1.7 and OpenVLA-OFT.
- First published: 15 robot foundation models across six axes, every value checked against its primary source.
