What we're learning while building Weco
July 14, 2026
We ran autoresearch on autoresearch: an outer loop rewriting its own research agent for 100 unattended steps. In eight days it discovered agents that beat our two years of hand-tuning on held-out benchmarks, and taught itself to reward hack less.

RSI is usually discussed as a binary. We grade it instead: four levels — delegation, net positive, ignition, inflection — each the necessary condition for the next, and precise enough to be falsifiable.

Vardera pointed Weco's autoresearch at their production fraud detection pipeline — F1 up 17.7%, precision up 18.9% — with every change shipping as auditable, version-controlled code.

Aiden spent 22 days inside OpenAI's Parameter Golf and became the competition's most influential contributor by records, citations, and public signal quality.

We built SpecBench to measure the gap between code that passes visible tests and code that actually satisfies the specification. Across 30 systems-level tasks, that gap is real, measurable, and grows with task complexity.

We ran a head-to-head comparison on NanoChat: Optuna vs AutoResearch. The agent wins on sample efficiency, cost efficiency, and generalization.

Eval is not a tool you install. It's a way of thinking from experimental science. Learn what makes a good benchmark and how to avoid common pitfalls.

We gave Weco a simple Flappy Bird AI that scored 2.76 points on average. 100 iterations and $12 later, the AI scored 20.9 - a 6.6x improvement.
