# CharBench - Character-level benchmark and analysis suite for LLMs. 

CharBench is a large-scale benchmark for studying tokenization and character-level behavior in modern language models.

For complete details on data curation and evaluation, see the [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.02591).

If you have ideas and suggestions to improve charbench feel free to reach out!
