The author of this post should benchmark his own blog for accessibility metrics, text contrast is dreadful.. On the other hand, this would be interesting for measuring agents in coding tasks, but there's quite a lot of context to provide here, both input and output would be massive.

Appreciate the feedback, will work on that.

Do you have any insights on the platform evaluation for coding tasks?

Anecdotal tip on LLM-as-judge scoring - Skip the 1-10 scale, use boolean criteria instead, then weight manually e.g. - Did it cite the 30-day return policy? Y/N - Tone professional and empathetic? Y/N - Offered clear next steps? Y/N Then: 0.5 * accuracy + 0.3 * tone + 0.2 * next_steps Why: Reduces volatility of responses while still maintaining creativeness (temperature) needed for good intuition

Isn’t this just rubrics?

its a weighted decision matrix.

Funny, this move is exactly what YouTube did to their system of human-as-judge video scoring, which was a 1-5 scale before they made it thumbs up/thumbs down in 2010.

I love the user experience for your product. You're giving a free demo with results within 5 minutes and then encourage the customer to "sign in" for more than 10 prompts. Presumably that'll be some sort of funnel for a paid upload of prompts.

Here's a bug report, by switching the model group the api hangs in private mode.
