Vibe Code Bench v1.1

Often citedHigher is better
What does it measure?
Made by Vals AI: whether an AI can build a web application from scratch, working only from a natural-language spec, and get it actually running.
Who evaluates it, and how?
For each non-technical spec of under a page, the AI builds an app, and an evaluator agent runs 20–60 automated tests per app by clicking through it. Product managers and engineers reviewed the specs and tests.
Reading the score
Scores run from 0 to 100%. Higher is better. Top models now exceed 90%, so it separates them less. The test set is not public.

The "harness" is the agent program the AI used to carry out the task. The same model can score very differently depending on its harness and reasoning effort.
