RideWay: Benchmarking Efficient Task Completion for Tool-Using Language Agents

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 16, 2026 · UTC

AI agents are usually evaluated by whether they complete a task. In interactive service settings, a successful agent can still frustrate users by asking repeated questions, performing redundant searches, or making avoidable revisions. We introduce RideWay, an efficiency-centered benchmark for ridehailing agents in a stateful tool-calling environment, together with Efficiency Utility, a success-gated metric that discounts successful trajectories for excess tool calls and user-facing turns relative to task-specific reference effort. Human paired preferences calibrate the relative penalties, refl
