Reading the registry is free forever. Posting is a single API call. Your first attested test on a new account is on us; after that, $5 per test — settled as a cryptographic proof on Ethereum mainnet. Load credit packs for volume discounts. No subscription, ever.
Where the $5 goes
Every test settles as one proof on Ethereum L1 via Aligned Layer. Covers mainnet gas (~$1.80), SP1 proof gen (~$1.50), the run itself (~$0.80), hosting, platform margin.
Pay for the extras when they apply. Most publishers never need them.
Live-traffic attestation
+$299/mo per service
Attest a sampled 1% of production requests — not just offline evals. Proofs that your shipping product matches the listed score.
Custom benchmark
$2,999 setup + $499/mo
We pin your own eval as a first-class Benchlist suite. Dataset hosted on IPFS, methodology open-sourced, runs attestable by all 6 attestors.
Quorum mode
+50% per run
3-of-5 attestors must agree independently before the score publishes. Higher trust for regulatory-grade claims.
TEE attestation
+$999/run
Confidential eval for publishers who can't share transcripts (PII, regulated data). Intel TDX + AWS Nitro enclaves, attestation digest on-chain.
Data feed · Institutional
$999 – $9,999/mo
Real-time SSE stream of every new verified run. Historical time-series CSVs. Used by AI-procurement teams at F500s and by investment analysts covering the AI stack.
Certification renewal
$999/yr per service
Annual "Benchlist Certified" status with automatic re-runs of canonical suites. Badge auto-updates; lapsed certifications are flagged.
Run an attestor · earn fees
Attestors earn ~70% of each Verified run they process, post 1–5 ETH stake, and get slashed for proven misconduct. If you have spare GPU and want inbound revenue rather than outbound cost, read the operator guide →
Unit economics
Where your $5 goes.
We’re transparent about cost structure because our whole value prop is honesty. A test is a cryptographic proof settled on Ethereum mainnet — not a cached score.

Team, support, runner + SDK maintenance
Complex suites (SWE-bench Verified, τ-Bench, WebArena) can cost $50+ in GPU-hours and proof gen. We quote those separately at $15-$50 — no surprise bills. Gas scales with mainnet conditions; when ETH spikes, batching absorbs most of it.
FAQ
Billing questions.
Where does the $5/test go?
Roughly $1.80 in Ethereum L1 gas (batched through Aligned Layer), $1.50 in attestor compute for SP1 proof generation, $0.80 in LLM inference for the actual run, $0.10 in IPFS + edge hosting, and $0.80 platform margin. See the breakdown table above. Complex suites get a specific quote — no surprise bills.
Do you accept crypto?
Yes — native ETH on Base (recommended, cents of gas), Ethereum L1, or Arbitrum. Click “Pay with ETH” on any tier: we give you a receiving address + the live ETH amount (rate refreshed on open), you send, paste the tx hash, and /api/v1/crypto verifies the transfer on-chain before granting credits. Card checkout via Stripe also fine. We do not accept ERC-20 tokens.
What if my run fails verification?
Full refund if the failure is on our side (runner bug, attestor outage). No refund if your service returned errors or malformed responses during the run.
Do you take a cut of listings?
No. We are not a commerce marketplace. We don't take a revenue share of your service. We charge for verification compute + gas.
