Cart success on ARC-100 v1

Cart success = the path put the test product in a cart, or got a checkout link back, and stopped before payment. Ranked by rate; rows with fewer than 10 results are not ranked. Live from saved results, refreshed hourly.

Measured: ARC observed it directly. Ranges are Wilson 95% confidence intervals; overlapping ranges mean the gap may be chance. Rows can have different n until every ARC-100 store has a result on every path. 9 ARC-100 stores have no published browser result yet. Stores outside the Index are waiting in ARC's capped weekly scan queue, so browser n will grow over the coming days.

Real-agent spot checks

Rows for named consumer agents appear here only when ARC has real saved runs of that agent on ARC-100. There are none yet, so this table is empty on purpose. ARC does not estimate or stand in for them.

Submitted runs unverified

Outside agent builders can submit runs against ARC-100 (spec). Submissions are self-reported and stay unverified until ARC re-runs a sample of the claimed stores. They are never mixed into the ranked table above.

No submissions yet. Be the first: POST /api/leaderboard/submit or the MCP tool submit_leaderboard_run at /api/ask.

The test set: ARC-100 v1

100 real stores picked from ARC's Index and open directory, balanced across categories, markets and platforms, then frozen. The set does not change inside a version; a new version gets a new name. CSV · JSON · How the stores were picked

Market comes from the store's domain only (.co.uk = GB); a generic domain like .com says nothing about where a store sells. Platform is the homepage fingerprint when measured, Shopify when the store answers a Shopify agent endpoint (inferred), else not detected.

✓ cart · ✗ no cart · – no cart tool on this path · · ARC's run broke (not counted) · … queued. A–E are ARC browser shoppers A–E.

Method

Cart success means the path put the test product in a cart, or got a checkout link back, and stopped before payment. No order is placed and nothing is paid.

n is the number of ARC-100 stores where that path has a result. Stores where ARC's own run broke (not the store's fault) are left out of n and listed as not run.

Ranges are Wilson 95% confidence intervals. When two ranges overlap, the gap between those rows may be chance.

Paths are measured on different stores until every ARC-100 store has a result for every path, so compare rows with their n in mind.

ARC browser shoppers A to E are ARC personas run on ARC-chosen models. They are not the consumer agents their legacy ids once named.

The UCP and storefront MCP rows are ARC's own HTTP client calling each store's public agent endpoints. They show what the protocol path allows, not how a particular consumer agent behaves.

Browser results come from ARC's existing weekly Index scans, which run under a fixed weekly spend cap; ARC-100 stores outside the Index use the same capped queue. UCP and MCP results come from ARC's free HTTP checks. Method arc-method-2026.10: /methodology · changelog. Agents can read this through the free MCP tool agent_leaderboard at /api/ask.
