[10/1/2026] Invent API vs. five frontier models on synthetic data – New research from Adaption’s research team shows synthetic data doesn’t have to trade diversity for quality, even when you start with no data. Building datasets remains one of the most manual and brittle parts of AI development. This research focuses on the most extreme yet prevalent setting real-world practitioners face: a zero-data regime. To assess progress in the zero-data regime, we evaluate Invent API alongside APIs from Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, DeepSeek, and Zai. Invent a Dataset generates a high-quality, AI-ready training dataset based on a user’s description and requested volume. The technical report evaluates the end quality and diversity of a variety of dataset requests covering different tasks, domains, and languages, at sizes ranging from 200 to 20,000 samples.
