Video-IFBench: leaderboard

Video-IFBench (2026) evaluates instruction following of multimodal LLMs on videos, checking each response against a constraint checklist by an LLM judge and programmatic verifiers. Task-gated instruction satisfaction rate over all four instruction types, in percent; higher is better.

Metric: Task-gated instruction satisfaction rate (%; TISR over all four instruction types; checklist-based instruction following on 1.5K video samples with 39 semantic and format constraint types; a response counts only if it addresses the active task (the correct branch for conditional instructions) and satisfies every checklist item, judged by Qwen3.5-397B-A17B-Instruct or verified programmatically; Gemini and Doubao get video at 1 fps, GPT-5.4 50 frames, vision-only models frames plus timestamped subtitles). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 38 models tracked.
