New meta-optimizer omni beats GEPA, AutoResearch and Meta-Harness at matched budget

A meta-optimizer that combines three LLM optimizers
Researchers compared GEPA, AutoResearch, and Meta-Harness and found that each one wins on different tasks rather than one optimizer dominating everywhere.
They then released optimizeanything omni, a meta-optimizer designed to exploit those complementary strengths.
- At a matched budget, omni beats every standalone optimizer.
- The core idea is to switch or combine optimizers instead of sticking with a single one.
- The post includes a thread and a visual showing the three optimizers’ different performance profiles.
