Methodology

What this reference supports

This page explains how ModelRefs evaluates evidence and assigns provisional fit or benchmark eligibility, including the distinction between provider-reported results and independently reproduced ones, and how eligibility tiers like Partial are assigned.

Use this page to interpret why a model or workflow carries a partial, unscored, or full benchmark status, and what additional evidence — independent reproduction, broader task coverage, dated sourcing — would be required to change that classification.

Methodology describes a scoring framework, not a certification. It explains how conclusions are reached and disclosed, but does not itself validate any individual model, provider, or workflow claim beyond the specific evidence cited for that entry.
