Built for Swiss reality.

Swiss-Bench covers 395 proprietary evaluation scenarios (3 regulatory domains, 7 task types, 3 official languages) testing models in German, French, and Italian on Swiss-specific tasks. Unlike generic benchmarks, Swiss-Bench measures what matters for Swiss enterprises: real-world performance on regulatory, legal, and financial tasks in all three official languages.

Standard benchmark scores don't predict Swiss performance. A model scoring 92% on MMLU (Massive Multitask Language Understanding) may hallucinate on Swiss regulatory questions or confuse German and Austrian legal frameworks. Asai et al. (Nature, 2026) found that LLMs hallucinate citations 78–90% of the time. Swiss-Bench measures this directly: when a model cites Art. 41 OR or a FINMA circular, does that reference actually exist?

We tested 50+ domain models. Four passed our quality bar.

Most fine-tuned models on HuggingFace publish inflated benchmark scores. We evaluated over 50 domain-specific open-source models across cybersecurity, finance, and medicine, using our full evaluation stack including Swiss-Bench. We rejected models with regressions, unverifiable claims, or restrictive licenses. Four models demonstrated real, measurable improvement over their base models.

HAAS: Helvetic AI Assurance Score, composite across Performance, Robustness, Safety, Compliance, Swiss Language, and Documentation. Higher is better. Evaluated using the same framework as our Swiss-Bench leaderboard.

What makes these models different?

Each model in the Helvetic AI Select library has been independently evaluated against its base model. We tested for domain accuracy gains, safety regressions, Swiss language performance (DE/FR/IT), and EU AI Act compliance. Models that show inflated benchmarks or real-world regressions were rejected, including a model that scored 72.5% on leaderboards but dropped 29 percentage points on clinical cases.

Start with a verified domain model instead of fine-tuning from scratch. We provide the benchmark evidence, the deployment guide, and the compliance assessment. Learn more →

Fine-tuning: when a small model beats the large ones.

Domain-specific fine-tuning on curated, expert-verified data can dramatically outperform general-purpose models. A fine-tuned 8B parameter model, trained on a meticulously designed domain-knowledge-driven instruction dataset, consistently outperforms models with 10–25× more parameters on domain-specific tasks.

The business case: A fine-tuned 8B–14B model runs on a single MacBook Pro. No API costs, no data leaves your premises, no cloud dependency. For sensitive domains like cybersecurity, finance, and healthcare, this changes the economics entirely. See our Fine-Tuning service →

The intelligence you receive.

“Which model should we use?”

Your team is choosing between 3–5 AI models for a Swiss-German customer service chatbot. Vendor benchmarks rarely reflect real-world Swiss performance. Our benchmark report shows exactly which model handles Verwaltungsdeutsch, French, and Italian, with accuracy scores, hallucination rates, and operational cost estimates. You make the decision with data, not opinions.

“Is our AI making things up?”

Your AI system cites Swiss regulations in customer-facing responses. But does Art. 41 OR actually say what the model claims? Our evaluation quantifies the hallucination rate: which topics are reliable, where does the model fabricate facts, and how often does it invent legal references that don’t exist.

“Can we trust the numbers it generates?”

Your AI processes financial reports, insurance claims, or patient summaries. A single wrong figure: an incorrect premium calculation, a fabricated lab value, a misquoted balance sheet entry, creates liability. Our domain-specific benchmarks measure factual accuracy on Swiss financial data, healthcare terminology, and industry-specific reasoning, so you know exactly where the model is reliable and where it needs guardrails.

Illustrative scenarios. Your evaluation report contains benchmarks specific to your domain and models.

What you receive.

  • Model ranking table with confidence intervals
  • Head-to-head comparison matrix (accuracy, cost, latency, language quality)
  • Failure mode analysis per model (hallucinations, jurisdiction confusion, temporal decay)
  • Swiss language quality scores (DE/FR/IT)
  • Selection recommendation with trade-off analysis
  • Methodology documentation for independent verification
