BenchCAD 2.1 (Anthropic runs, Claude Code): leaderboard
Models write programmatic CAD for the 100 held-out BenchCAD 2.1 Core cases across six tasks (parts and assemblies from engineering drawings or rendered views, board wiring from renders); the score (0 to 1) is the mean over passes when Anthropic ran each Claude model inside Claude Code. Unlike the BenchCAD figures in OpenAI's and Kimi's launch posts, which the BenchCAD site files under its 1.0 Vision2Code voxel-IoU task, this is the 2.1 Core set, with Anthropic's runs of four Claude models at five efforts.
Metric: Core score (0 to 1) on the 100 held-out BenchCAD 2.1 Core cases (six programmatic-CAD tasks), run in Claude Code, mean of passes; Anthropic's runs. Source: benchcad.com. Saturation forecast: Around May 2027. 20 models tracked.
