The high-water mark

Tufa Labs finished the ARC-AGI-2 public snapshot first at 88.06%. The score-event record shows its visible rise from 83.61% to 88.06% during this edition’s window, and ARC Prize announced the new high. The organizer also said a $150,000 bonus would be split among teams above 85%. That announcement describes a threshold, not a final award or private-leaderboard result; the available record does not settle those terms.

The leading pack

rabbithole held second at 80.56%, Yi-Chia Chen third at 77.22%, and nvbanana fourth at 77.08% in their tracked comparisons. ARC Raiders remained seventh at 58.75%. The nvbanana roster includes Jean-François Puget’s verified cpmpml account; that is a distinct ARC-2 team from NVARC3 in ARC-3. The ARC Raiders roster includes Keith Tyser’s account, also listed under its own entry in ARC-3. These roster observations establish membership when checked, not who made a submission.

The unresolved finish

ARC Prize’s threshold announcement drew a public question from Puget about whether the 85% applies to the public or private board. No organizer answer was visible in the checked thread. The public table now has Tufa Labs well clear of second place, but the competition’s private result and any final prize determination remain open.
