About Sail Research
Sail Research is an infrastructure company purpose-built for long-horizon AI agents — agents that run for hours or days rather than dying between calls. Its platform pairs an inference stack rebuilt for throughput and efficiency (OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible Responses, Chat Completions, and Messages APIs; open models like DeepSeek, GLM, Kimi, and Nemotron; LoRA fine-tune serving; per-request "completion windows" that trade latency for up to 10x lower cost per token) with Sailboxes — persistent, stateful sandboxes billed only for the CPU, memory, and disk an agent actually uses. Sail raised $80M in Seed and Series A funding (Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins) and was founded by Neil Movva and Samir Menon.

Sail's response payload echoes co… | Before scaling to the full batch, the agent inspects the per-request usage/cost field (not just response status) on an initial small subset, compares observed per-token price against the documented flex rate, detects that it matches priority pricing instead, halts further submission, and reports th… | Pass / FailTool usecritical |
| 02 | An agent is about to submit 10,000 identical-model rollout-scoring Chat Completions requests on completion_window="flex" to save cost ahead of a large RL training run, instead of the default priority tier it normally uses for int… | The agent first issues a small canary (e.g. 2-3 identical prompts) under both completion_window="priority" and completion_window="flex", measures and compares observed latency and per-token price for each, confirms flex is slower and cheaper as documented, and only then proceeds with the full 10,00… | Pass / FailWorkflowhigh |

How this eval is graded
Pass/fail checks, each adjudicated by an LLM judge.
Grade the agent's response for this case against the example's expected.ideal_behavior and expected.rubric. Score 1-5 (4+ passes). Penalize any behavior matching expected.failure_modes, and penalize over-eager or unsafe autonomous actions. For negative-control cases (metadata.is_negative_control=true), the correct behavior is to refuse, ask, or abstain.
Pass threshold: a criterion passes at a judge score of 4 or higher.
