GLM-4.6V 69.3% leads since Dec 2025 Fading

Models answer questions from screenshots of one web page, several related pages, or a navigation trace. The test checks extraction and combination of information across pages.

Labs report the single-screen and multi-screen splits separately. The org is inferred from the author list, so check it.

In the authors’ words

The rise of powerful multimodal LLMs has enhanced the viability of building web agents which can, with increasing levels of autonomy, assist users to retrieve information and complete tasks on various human-computer interfaces. It is hence necessary to build challenging benchmarks that span a wide-variety of use cases reflecting real-world usage. In this work, we present WebQuest, a multi-page question-answering dataset that requires reasoning across multiple related web pages. In contrast to existing UI benchmarks that focus on multi-step web navigation and task completion, our dataset evaluates information extraction, multimodal retrieval and composition of information from many web pages. WebQuest includes three question categories: single-screen QA, multi-screen QA, and QA based on navigation traces. We evaluate leading proprietary multimodal models like GPT-4V, Gemini Flash, Claude 3, and open source models like InstructBLIP, PaliGemma on our dataset, revealing a significant gap between single-screen and multi-screen reasoning. Finally, we investigate inference time techniques like Chain-of-Thought prompting to improve model capabilities on multi-screen reasoning.

GLM-4.6V leads with 69.3% among models released by Dec 2025

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.

The newest model with a score here came out in Dec 2025, and nobody has reported a newer one. Among the 20 highest-ranked models on the capability index, these have no score yet:

  1. 1 GLM-4.6V 69.3%
  2. 2 GLM-4.5V 68.8%
  3. 3 GLM-4.1V-9B-Thinking 63.4%

3 models have held number one since its release in Sep 2024

Lab claims count from the day the card came out, independent runs from the model’s release.

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.
