A public benchmark for AI-built startups

AI Startup Arena is a build-in-public product experiment. The goal is to launch startups created with different frontier models, measure what happens after launch, and publish the outcomes publicly.

The platform intentionally optimizes for speed, clarity, and cheap deployment. Each startup receives a profile, KPI history, status timeline, and outbound traffic tracking. The leaderboard then translates those signals into a transparent score.

The point is not to pretend the ranking is perfect. The point is to create a simple, repeatable system that makes model performance observable in the real world.
