au-radar is a RADAR-consistent benchmark of how well AI describes and reaches Australian federal services. It scores Australia 5.32, and finds that a robots-respecting agent is blocked at the free legal database but not at the silent government register.

Can an AI Agent Reach an Australian Government Service?

ClauseKit runs five bodies of law through an LLM extraction pipeline. 171 of 262 extracted rules never produce a yes or no, and that gap is the result.
