Always wanted a benchmark mode in your game but never found the means?
EVOLVE SDK will help you build a benchmark mode from the ground up by removing a lof of the tedious parts. We've built the infrastructure already, allowing you to spend time where it matters. On your game!
Building meaningful in-game performance benchmarks is time-consuming and expensive.Collecting metrics, developing art, code and designing a nice UX all require significant effort.
Turning a game level into a cinematic, hardware-testing benchmark is complex and requires custom logic. It’s hard to standardize visuals, timing, and scoring.
Lack of reliable GPU performance data makes it hard to select in-game default settings. Players may experience poor performance due to incorrect presets.
Evolve SDK & Overlay
You'll provide us with the timing data that you record for your render passes, CPU-side work, etc., and we'll augment it with energy consumption, temperature, GPU utilization metrics, and full hardware and machine information that we collect—optionally integrating with our global Hall of Fame to showcase and compare user results.
Evolve SDK will add a professional hardware overlay (on screen display) with minimal code and effort.
As part of Evolve we've created a ton of infrastructure that is easy to integrate into your game with relatively little effort.

We'll provide a header file and a dll, or an Unreal Engine plugin and you'll do the rest!
Evolve SDK will provide the familiar HW Overlay and integrate directly into our Hall of Fame, where it can be ranked along with other benchmarks and game titles!

Benchmark-as-a-Service
One step beyond the Evolve SDK would be to test us transform your game into an automated, cinematic GPU benchmark. We'll provide and engineering and art team that works closely with your developers to achieve your benchmarking vision.

Performance Data Bundles
Our benchmarks run every day on all sorts of different machines, and the data we collect and be used to set up the best "first launch" user experience. You can easily query our database to set up initial settings for your users so that all your players have the best out of the box experience for their machines.
We'll provide the data as anonymised and averaged JSON data describing exactly how powerful a machine is in various categories, allowing you to set the optimal defaults.

Built by
benchmarking experts
At Traverse, we've spent years building GPU benchmarks-not just for the lab, but for real, in-market games.
With roots in AAA game development, our team understands the pressures of production schedules, engine limitations, and tight launch timelines.
That’s why we build tools that fit seamlessly into your workflow. Evolve is crafted to work with your pipeline, not against it-delivering value without the friction.

Frequently asked questions
With Evolve SDK this is entirely up to you, with our Benchmark As A Service offer we'll go in and do the work for you!
For the Evolve SDK this is indeed the case, for benchmark as a service we supply a full white-label option to stay true to your branding and marketing.
We'll provide an API to record GPU and CPU markers, categorize them, compress them and submit them to a highscore server to be associated with a user. We'll collect machine information in the background from various sources, as well as record dynamic GPU and CPU state (voltage, energy, temperature etc).
Yes - all data is anonimized and handled according to GDPR and other local regulations.
Yes - we can supply all infrastructure to run on-prem, or we can take care of the infrastructure ourselves
