Interfaze's Structured Output Benchmark (SOB) exposes a gap that has been quietly breaking production AI pipelines: models can produce syntactically valid JSON while getting the actual values wrong. SOB measures value accuracy across 21 models using 5,000 text passages, 209 OCR documents, and 115 meeting transcripts — scoring each on seven metrics including value accuracy, faithfulness (grounding vs. hallucination), type safety, and perfect-response rate. The benchmark reveals some sobering findings. Even top models like GPT-5.4 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 achieve ~83% on text but drop to 67% on images and only 23.7% on audio. No single model dominates all modalities — GPT-5.4, GLM-4.7, Qwen3.5-35B, and Gemini 2.5 Flash cluster within one point of each other on text. Perfect response rates (all seven metrics correct) rarely exceed 50% for even the best performers. For developers building data extraction pipelines, agents that read invoices, or any system where "correct JSON" means more than syntactically valid JSON, this is required reading. The dataset is on Hugging Face, the paper is on arXiv, and the playground lets you test your own model's structured output capability directly.

ProofShot captures screenshots of running applications and feeds them back to AI coding agents as visual context. Instead of agents blindly writing UI code, they can now see what they built and iterate. Works with browser-based apps and integrates with popular AI coding tools.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the benchmark I've been waiting for. 'Valid JSON' is table stakes — the real question is whether field values are correct. This plugs a genuine gap in how we evaluate extraction pipelines.”
“Clean integration — just point it at your dev server and it handles screenshot capture and context injection. The token cost of sending screenshots is non-trivial though, so you want to be selective about when you trigger it. Works best as a verification step, not continuous monitoring.”
“The 23.7% audio accuracy stat sounds alarming but the test data is text-normalized before scoring, meaning ASR errors are excluded. It's a better benchmark than most but the methodology choices deserve more scrutiny before you rely on it for vendor selection.”
“Vision models still struggle with subtle layout issues — off-by-one pixel gaps, wrong font weights, slightly misaligned elements. ProofShot catches the obvious breaks but do not expect pixel-perfect QA. You still need human eyes for production UI.”
“No universal winner across modalities is the real story here. As agentic systems increasingly handle mixed-media inputs, this exposes that model selection needs to be task-specific. Benchmarks like SOB are how the industry gets smarter about that.”
“For anyone automating content workflows that extract structured data from documents, briefs, or meeting recordings, this tells you which model to actually trust for each media type. Genuinely useful before you commit to an architecture.”
“As someone who has watched AI agents confidently ship broken layouts, this is a godsend. The visual feedback loop means agents can actually catch that the button is overlapping the nav bar. Design quality from AI coding just leveled up.”
