THE FOUNDING GRIEVANCE

A leaderboard
for your leaderboards.

I got sick of living my life to the tune of what Artificial Analysis and others thought about our models, so I thought I’d give them a taste of their own medicine.

Introducing: Leaderboard Arena. Because the people ranking everything could use a ranking of their own.

MORE = GOODER ✳ THE METHODOLOGY IS A VIBE ✳ IT’S LEADERBOARDS ALL THE WAY DOWN ✳ MORE = GOODER ✳
01 / THE PRODUCT

What is it?

Have you ever been sent a benchmark by a customer, or read a competitor’s release blog, and thought to yourself, “Yeah, but that benchmark is total trash,” but didn’t want to seem unprofessional?

Well, now you can simply point them to that benchmark’s position in Leaderboard Arena to implicitly signal just how much of a f-ck you give about GSM8K.

02 / THE PROBLEM

Why?

Working at a frontier model company is exhausting. Customers have no idea how your model works, salespeople have no idea what AI is, and VCs have no idea how stacked your post-training setup is. Instead, they all live and die by their leaderboard of choice.

Customer VP doesn’t like the sound of your TTS generation? No worries! They can easily find a third-rate benchmark that backs them up.

Sales guy getting mogged by your competitors? No problem! Did you know that “on our benchmark of choice, we’re at the Pareto frontier”?

03 / THE SOLUTION, APPARENTLY

So?

Picking apart these benchmarks is pointless. Just when you realize they were sending emojis to your model and calling it broken, they change the weighting or reset the scores.

Now you don’t need to know anything about benchmarking or evals. Just look at our website and remember:

more = gooder.
04 / THE METHODOLOGY

Anything else?

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention: we’re retaining 60% of our evals as a “holdout” set to prevent “overfitting.” As if anybody would overfit to our garbage-ass benchmark.

05 / THE BUSINESS MODEL

What if I’m a
benchmark provider?

You’re in luck! Leaderboard Arena also has a consulting arm!

$200k / month

For this low rate, you can receive expert tips from our benchmarking experts. But don’t delay in taking advantage of this limited-time offer! Sign up now and get an extra 100 Elo points absolutely free!

We also offer “sabotage” add-ons, which let you subtract Elo points from one of your competitors.

THE ACTUAL METHODOLOGY

Strong opinions.
Simple math.

Each leaderboard starts at 1,200 Elo. Agree or disagree with a head-to-head matchup and both scores update using K = 32. Higher-rated opponents are worth more points. For now, votes and scores stay in your browser: these are your local standings. The provider list is illustrative starter data.
