+ # Trialmark
22
+
23
+ **Model acceptance tests for language models.** Test models on your own work, decide in advance
24
+ what result is good enough, and keep a record that anyone can rerun and check.
25
+
26
+ Choosing a language model is a trade between accuracy, cost and speed. Trialmark makes that
27
+ choice systematic:
28
+
29
+ 1. **Your own test set.** Cases from your own work, each with a reference answer written by a
30
+ person and tagged by kind, such as "factual" or "multi-part". The set is hashed, so a later
31
+ run can prove it used exactly the same cases.
32
+ 2. **A pass mark set before the run.** For example: "choose the cheapest model within 3 points
33
+ of the best on correctness, as long as at least 95% of its answers are grounded". The rule
34
+ is stored with its hash and the time it was set, so it cannot be quietly changed after the
35
+ results are in.
36
+ 3. **Repeats, with the range shown.** Models do not give the same answer every time. Each model
37
+ runs several times, and the report shows the lowest and highest result so that a difference
38
+ inside the range is read as no difference.
39
+ 4. **A report by kind of case.** A small model may be as good as a large one on single facts
40
+ and worse on multi-part questions. The breakdown by tag shows where.
41
+ 5. **A run record and a release gate.** Every run writes one JSON file with the test set's hash,
42
+ the models and their settings, the judge, the pass mark and every result. `trialmark gate`
43
+ exits with 0 or 1, so a pipeline can refuse a model change that fails the pass mark.
44
+
45
+ Trialmark runs on your own machines. Your test sets, reference answers and records stay with you.
46
+
47
+ ## Where it comes from
48
+
49
+ Trialmark was spun out of the model benchmark in [Forge](https://www.forgeprivate.com), a
50
+ governed layer through which organisations delegate work to AI. That benchmark compares models
51
+ on a fixed set of business-document questions, through Forge's own answer path, with three
52
+ repeats and accuracy, cost and speed side by side. Trialmark makes the same kind of test
53
+ available to any developer or team, with or without Forge.
54
+
55
+ ## Status
56
+
57
+ Trialmark is at an early stage. Version 0.1 provides the formats and the decision:
58
+
59
+ | Built in 0.1 | Planned |
60
+ |---|---|
61
+ | The test set format, with hashing and tags | Runners that call models directly (Anthropic, OpenAI and others) |
62
+ | The pass mark and the decision rule | A reference-answer judge, which grades an answer as correct, partly correct or incorrect and checks that it is grounded |
63
+ | The run record, with the pass mark's hash | A field-by-field scorer for extraction and classification |
64
+ | The report, with ranges and the breakdown by tag | A runner that tests a model inside Forge, with Forge's retrieval and rules applied |
65
+ | `trialmark gate` for pipelines | Logging runs to MLflow |
66
+
67
+ In 0.1 you produce the results yourself, with your own code, and Trialmark records, reports and
68
+ decides on them.
69
+
70
+ ## Install
71
+
72
+ ```bash
73
+ pip install trialmark
74
+ ```
75
+
76
+ Python 3.10 or later. The core has no dependencies.
77
+
78
+ ## Try it
79
+
80
+ The `examples` folder holds a five-question test set and an illustrative run of three made-up
81
+ models. The scores in it are invented to show the format; they are not measurements of any real
82
+ model.
83
+
84
+ ```bash
85
+ trialmark validate examples/testset.json
86
+ trialmark report examples/run-record.json --by-tag
87
+ trialmark gate examples/run-record.json --model medium-model --test-set examples/testset.json
88
+ ```
89
+
90
+ ## Use it from Python
91
+
92
+ ```python
93
+ from trialmark import ModelEntry, PassMark, Result, RunRecord, load_test_set, text_report
94
+
95
+ test_set = load_test_set("my-testset.json")
96
+
97
+ # Fix the decision before any model runs.
98
+ pass_mark = PassMark(metric="correct", tolerance_points=3, floors={"grounded": 0.95}, choose="cheapest")
99
+ record = RunRecord.start(
100
+ test_set,
101
+ pass_mark,
102
+ [ModelEntry(id="model-a", provider="provider-x"), ModelEntry(id="model-b", provider="provider-y")],
103
+ repeats=3,
104
+ judge={"model": "judge-model", "prompt_version": "1"},
105
+ )
106
+
107
+ for repeat in range(3):
108
+ for model in ("model-a", "model-b"):
109
+ for case in test_set.cases:
110
+ answer, cost, ms = call_your_model(model, case.input) # your code
111
+ score = grade(answer, case.reference) # your code: 0, 0.5 or 1
112
+ record.add(Result(
113
+ model=model, repeat=repeat, case_id=case.id, tags=list(case.tags),
114
+ metrics={"correct": score, "grounded": 1.0},
115
+ output=answer, cost_usd=cost, latency_ms=ms,
116
+ ))
117
+
118
+ record.save("run-record.json")
119
+ print(text_report(record, by_tag=True))
120
+ ```
121
+
122
+ ## Formats
123
+
124
+ **Test set**
125
+
126
+ ```json
127
+ {
128
+ "name": "contract-questions",
129
+ "version": "2026-11-05",
130
+ "cases": [
131
+ { "id": "q1", "input": "What is the notice period?", "reference": "Sixty days' written notice.", "tags": ["factual"] }
132
+ ]
133
+ }
134
+ ```
135
+
136
+ The hash covers the cases (their ids, inputs, references and tags), not the name or version.
137
+
138
+ **Pass mark**
139
+
140
+ | Field | Meaning |
141
+ |---|---|
142
+ | `metric` | The score the decision rests on, such as `correct` |
143
+ | `tolerance_points` | How many percentage points below the best model still passes |
144
+ | `floors` | Minimum mean scores on other metrics, such as `{"grounded": 0.95}` |
145
+ | `choose` | Which passing model to choose: `cheapest`, `fastest` or `best` |
146
+
147
+ **Metrics** are whatever your scorer produces, each between 0 and 1. A model's score on a
148
+ metric is the mean within each repeat; the report shows the mean of those and their range.
