Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates financial formula accuracy and document clause extraction accuracy.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

DSCR Math Verification

Verifies calculated revised DSCR matches expected algebraic debt reduction

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

IRR Percentage Error

Absolute error on projected equity IRR calculation • target: 0.1 • range: 0-2

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
