Sentient Foundation launches open Fingerprinting Leaderboard for model provenance

0xsachi · x · 2026-10-14

Sentient Foundation released the Fingerprinting Leaderboard, a free open-source benchmark for proving a model was copied from yours. Researchers submit ownership-marking methods; Sentient plants the mark in its own test models, tries to strip it, and ranks methods publicly, with the test code mlprints also released. A fingerprint trains a model to return unlikely answers to secret prompts, verifiable via API alone. The board scores verification reliability alongside removal resistance (robustness) and skill retention (utility). Current top method llmap-v4 scores 100/100/99%.
