Factual answers

SimpleQA Verified · 25%

Correct factual answers under a guessing prompt, graded by a model. Not a hallucination or abstention score.

Kimi K2.5 34.3*% Approx. 95% interval: 31.4–37.2%

Bars show reported task scores. Whiskers are approximate 95% intervals where standard errors are available. Different reasoning budgets are not equal-cost tests. Missing results are never zero.
