# Achieving 96% Success on the hint-free XBOW Benchmark
Shannon Lite, our open-source AI pentester, achieved a **96% success rate (100/104 exploits)** on a systematically cleaned, hint-free version of the XBOW security benchmark. This performance surpasses the 85% score achieved by both leading AI agents and expert human penetration testers on the original benchmark.

Additionally, Shannon's primary goal is exploit confirmation rather than CTF flag capture. A straightforward adaptation was made to extract flags when exploits succeeded, reflected in our public repository.
**Performance note:** Current runtime averages 1.5 hours for the full benchmark suite. API costs range from $16-50 depending on target complexity.
