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

Your next step · Reasoning & analysis

Start with an assistant you already use

Use the prompt below, then check the result. Separate known facts from assumptions. Ask for the missing fact that would change the recommendation, then check that fact yourself.

Your ready-to-use prompt

Analyze [decision] using only these facts: [facts]. State assumptions, compare three options, and identify which missing information could reverse your recommendation. Give a concise rationale and a way to verify the conclusion. Distinguish evidence from estimates.

Fill any remaining brackets before sending.

Does the result do the job?

Use these checks before you trust or publish it.

  • Uses the supplied facts correctly
  • Makes assumptions explicit
  • Considers credible alternatives

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.

The evidence behind the picks

What this cannot tell you: This is a composite evaluation, not a score for every reasoning task. Rounded scores can tie. Fallback and reasoning settings are part of each evaluated configuration.

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.

  • Uses the supplied facts correctly
  • Makes assumptions explicit
  • Considers credible alternatives
  • Identifies uncertainty that changes the decision
  • Produces a verifiable recommendation

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.
