At Box, we've been testing Gemini 4 Argon on our Box AI Complex Work eval for the past week. It's a huge upgrade over Gemini 3.1 Pro, jumping by 14 percentage points across all our tests, and firmly at the frontier.
In our evaluation, we give the Box Agent (using Gemini 4 Argon) a variety of complex enterprise tasks involving enterprise documents in a range of industries. These tasks approximate the kind of hard, time-consuming work that knowledge workers do every day with their enterprise content. Gemini 4 is a huge leap on effectively every dimension of this work.
Gemini 4 is far more capable on math, logic, analytics, and deep knowledge of a variety of business domains. It also works far harder to complete tasks fully without stopping short of the desired result. This is incredibly important for complex enterprise workflows that depend on robust task execution.
Here are some example wins that we saw to put the improvements in perspective:
* Financial services (+18 points): a funding-gap analysis for a family-owned company, where the brief spelled out every step of the projected statements, down to the interest on the bank loan and the overdraft for each year. Gemini 4 Argon built them exactly as specified, every line broken out and carried through to the funding gap. Gemini 3.1 Pro folded the interest into a single figure.
* Healthcare (+25 points): an intensive care management plan where both models spotted a dangerous potassium level and a drug interaction. Only Gemini 4 Argon went back and pulled the offending drugs from the final regimen, so its plan actually matched its own diagnosis.
* Technology (+37 points): a product performance review deciding which of two regional markets should have its cloud infrastructure optimized first. Gemini 4 Argon pulled the right month's user, retention and per-user figures for both regions and correctly flagged North America. Gemini 3.1 Pro often pulled the wrong rows, at one point reporting retention above 100%, and pointed the effort at the wrong region.
* Energy (+16 points): an energy consumption report across two facilities that had to flag any gaps in the meter data. Gemini 4 Argon consistently caught that the data center's smart meter log stops in November. Gemini 3.1 Pro often missed it, at times declaring the logs complete.
* Consumer products (+33 points): a product launch evaluation deciding which production expansion to fund. Gemini 4 Argon saw that existing inventory could bridge an early capacity gap, which made the smaller expansion viable with an earlier launch and a faster break-even. Gemini 3.1 Pro defaulted to the larger expansion and the later timeline.
Gemini 4 Argon will be available in the Box AI Studio shortly for anyone to build custom Box Agents with.
