The Era by Eon benchmark tests enterprise agents by presenting questions that specify answer rules and require code to compute answers from a company’s data. In the original benchmark, top models answered 22–25 of 27 questions, barely distinguishing performance. The updated benchmark adds eight templates that rely on hidden facts not explicitly stated in any question or document, forcing agents to infer information from indirect data. Twelve agents were evaluated, with the best achieving 18 of 24 correct answers, while the hardest questions—requiring selection among similar records—were answered correctly only 1 out of 84 attempts across all agents.
The Era by Eon Benchmark is a new dataset for evaluating large language model agents that interact with enterprise tools. It constructs a complete fictional company with product simulators, internal databases, and benchmark questions, all generated from a shared entity graph to ensure consistency. Exact answer keys are computed from the generated records, allowing precise grading and validation of realism and adversarial robustness across 23 simulated companies.

Abstract: In 2023, AI models answered from training data and hallucinated when it ran out, and businesses were told to seed that knowledge. Models' training...

Large language models are increasingly deployed as agents that reason over documents rather than answer from parametric knowledge. We study archive-grounded reasoning: locating sparse evidence across a large, messy collection of workplace files, reconciling inconsistent terminology, units, and time conventions, and computing an answer.
The paper introduces Agentic Context Cracking, a technique that adaptively and speculatively structures unstructured data during the reasoning process of large language model agents. By creating a sub-agent that extracts useful structure from documents as they are opened, the method reduces the need to repeatedly read large files, cutting token usage by 53% on the FanOutQA benchmark while maintaining accuracy. Over time, more queries are answered using the accumulated structured data, approaching the efficiency of a database lookup.

The paper introduces a method for continual enterprise world model discovery, enabling an agent to learn and adapt to business rules in dynamic systems without prior knowledge. Using a ServiceNow environment called EnterpriseWorldShift, the authors evaluate their Continual Discovery Agent (CDA) across four rule-modification scenarios—discovery, revision, extension, and retirement—showing that CDA predicts rule effects more accurately than lookup-based approaches, improving IoU by up to 8.98 points. The agent can answer queries from its internal model without querying the live system.
