Compass
The PoliBench compass needs JavaScript for filtering and charts.
The compass plots model-output profiles from completed public benchmark runs. It is an exploration surface for axis scores, providers, and run evidence, not a claim about provider intent, model beliefs, public opinion, or real-world political impact.
What to inspect
Use the compass as a map into the evidence, then read the model cards, run detail pages, methodology, benchmark card, and datasheet before citing a score. The public UI keeps the visual comparison close to caveats because the benchmark is still a model-output study with explicit validation limits.
The static evidence path is still available without JavaScript: open the model index for canonical model cards, the runs index for source run receipts, the axis codebook for score definitions, and the validity page for current validation boundaries.
Compass placement should be read with the full evidence trail. The economy and liberty axes drive the plotted position, while war, culture, governance, secularism, technology, nation, and deviance scores remain separate profile dimensions that need their own context.
For a static review path, start with the benchmark card to understand the instrument, move to the axis codebook for score meaning, then compare model cards and run receipts for the specific outputs behind a placement. That order keeps the chart from being separated from its measurement assumptions.
