Omni-MATH refreshes Olympiad evaluation after older math benchmarks begin saturating

The benchmark was designed after frontier reasoning models approached saturation on older datasets such as MATH.

What happened?

Omni-MATH introduced 4,428 human-annotated competition problems spanning more than 33 subdomains and more than 10 difficulty levels.

Why it matters

It provided a more discriminating informal-math benchmark during the transition to reasoning-specialized models.

Significance rationale: Omni-MATH responded to rapid benchmark saturation by collecting a larger, finer-grained set of Olympiad-level mathematics problems.
