BioTIER
Safeguarded model configurations receive harmful and benign biology requests. Scored on refusing requests designated for refusal and allowing benign ones.
Run by SecureBio. Counts full blocks and model-jury graded soft refusals.

Muse Wonder Full leads with 98.7%
Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

2 models have held number one since its release in Sep 2026
Lab claims count from the day the card came out, independent runs from the model’s release.
The best score passed 85% in Jun 2026
All the scores we have, one dot each, so a model tested at several settings appears more than once.
Labs report it only in system cards
We read the headline results of 479 launch posts from 51 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.
5 system cards report it, from 2 labs
Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
