The development of audio foundation models has accelerated rapidly since the emergence of GPT-4o. However, the lack of comprehensive evaluation has become a critical bottleneck for further progress in the field, particularly in audio generation. Current audio evaluation faces three major challenges: (1) audio evaluation lacks a unified framework, with datasets and code scattered across various sources;(2) audio codec, as a key component of audio foundation models, lacks a widely accepted and holistic evaluation methodology; (3) existing speech benchmarks are heavily reliant on English, making it challenging to objectively assess models’ performance on Chinese.We introduce UltraEval-Audio, a unified framework addressing these challenges through a modular architecture supporting 10 languages, 14 task categories, 24 models, and 36 benchmarks with one-command evaluation and real-time leaderboards. For audio codec, we propose a three-dimensional evaluation scheme covering semantic accuracy, timbre fidelity, and acoustic quality. For Chinese evaluation, we introduce two new benchmarks: SpeechCMMLU and SpeechHSK. Our code, benchmarks, and leaderboards are available at https://github.com/OpenBMB/UltraEval-Audio.
