How the ranking works

Blind duels. Two clips of the same prompt, order randomised, model names and watermarks hidden until after the vote.
Elo ratings. Each duel moves both models' scores (K = 16). Ties count as half a win. Category tabs only use duels tagged for that category.
Provisional under 100 votes. Every model is listed, but with few votes its rating can still swing a lot, so it is marked. Votes from voters who fail attention checks are discarded.
Votes only. A “Try” link that earns us a referral fee is marked Ad, and it never moves a model up or down. How we make money
