AI models for math problems

A prompt for your current assistant, checks for the result and evidence when you need an alternative.

Your next step · Math problems

Start with an assistant you already use

Use the prompt below, then check the result. State the domain and constraints. Ask for a checkable derivation and verify the result by substitution or a separate method.

Your ready-to-use prompt

Solve this problem: [problem]. State the domain and assumptions, show a checkable derivation, and verify the answer by substitution, boundary cases or a separate method. If a step cannot be justified, identify the gap. Do not substitute numerical examples for a general proof.

Fill any remaining brackets before sending.

Does the result do the job?

Use these checks before you trust or publish it.

  • Correct final answer
  • Valid derivation without missing steps
  • Respects assumptions and domain

If it misses the mark, select “I want a better result” above. Consider another model when a clearer brief still leaves you stuck.

Why this recommendation?

AgentBoards editorial guidance

There is no evidence here that you need to switch. Try your familiar tool on a clearly defined task first; an app name does not tell us its exact model or capabilities.

More reasoning effort does not guarantee a higher score.

What this cannot tell you: MathArena combines observed scores with estimates for missing problems across non-deprecated competitions. This is not a raw pass rate on one shared test, or proof that a solution is correct.

If you compare alternatives

Start with one small example. Before committing, compare at least three representative examples using the same inputs, tools and settings; record failures too. AgentBoards has not run these models on your work.

  • Correct final answer
  • Valid derivation without missing steps
  • Respects assumptions and domain
  • Includes an independent check
  • Clearly identifies any unresolved proof gap

Scores keep their publisher’s units and exact configurations. We do not average unrelated benchmarks. This is a curated shortlist, not a full leaderboard. Snapshots need review after 14 days; sponsorship cannot buy a recommendation.
