THE LEAPSCOPE LADDER
From claim to real.
Most AI news stops at the announcement. We follow each breakthrough and move it up the ladder only when public evidence supports it.
- ClaimAnnounced or reported by the team behind it. Not yet checked by others.
- VerifiedChecked by outside experts, official judges or by results anyone can recheck.
- UsableYou can try it: public code, a model, a tool or a dataset is available.
- In useWidely used in real work beyond the team that built it.

Open the chartA release, a result and an access update are different.
- Model release
- A new AI model was announced. Its availability and capabilities need their own checks.
- Research
- A finding was reported. A paper or announcement alone does not prove every claim.
- Access update
- Who can use a model changed. This does not increase its capability score.
- Company profile
- An introduction to a business and its products, with links to its own materials.
Source checked does not mean proven.
- Source reviewed
- We checked the original announcement. We did not independently test the model.
- Claim under review
- The claim is still being examined. Treat possible benefits as possibilities.
- Mixed verification
- Different parts of a collection have different levels of checking.
On the default chart, up means a higher Epoch AI capability score. Scores are index points, not “times smarter.” Switch to the release calendar to see dated events without scores.
