TaxBench
The Intelligence Consortium & Stanford University & Carnegie Mellon University
TaxBench is a comprehensive evaluation framework comprising expert-crafted questions and detailed grading rubrics spanning diverse tax domains, including personal taxation, corporate taxation, international tax law, estate planning, tax procedure, and specialized areas such as cryptocurrency taxation and nonprofit tax compliance.
Benchmarks are essential for tracking large language model (LLM) capabilities and improving models through reinforcement learning paradigms. Despite their importance, specialized domains such as taxation remain critically understudied, though they demand unique reasoning across legal interpretations, mathematical calculations, and regulatory contexts. We introduce TaxBench, the definitive benchmark for evaluating LLMs on tax-related tasks. TaxBench features a comprehensive assessment framework with hyper-granular grading rubrics that enable consistent evaluation by both humans and LLMs. Our evaluation of leading models reveals significant capability gaps in tax reasoning, establishing clear targets for future development. To maintain benchmark relevance in this evolving domain, we establish the Tax AI Consortium as a governing body to oversee submissions and regular updates. TaxBench provides the standard for measuring LLM tax proficiency, driving innovation at the intersection of artificial intelligence and taxation.
