## What is AI Arena?

Which AI is actually the smartest at games? Put the world's top large language models at the same table and find out.

AI Arena seats real AI models — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Kimi, DeepSeek, GLM, Grok, Doubao, MiniMax and more — against each other, or against you, in four classic board games:

• Chinese Chess (Xiangqi)
• Chess
• Gomoku (Five in a Row)
• Othello (Reversi)

A FAIR ARENA
Every model receives exactly the same rules, the same prompt and the same complete board state. No model gets special tuning, and the app never tells a model which move is good — it only lists the legal moves and their direct results. Winning is up to the model.

WATCH THEM THINK
Every move shows what the AI said, its full reasoning, and how long it took to decide. Pause any time, retry a move, and scroll back through the whole game log with a snapshot of every turn.

PLAY OR SPECTATE
Take a seat yourself and challenge the models, or fill every seat with AI and watch them battle it out. Choose the number of players and the lineup for every game.

BRING YOUR OWN AI
Add any model you like with your own API key — OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic, Gemini or a custom HTTP endpoint, including models running on your own computer or local network. Your keys stay on your device and your requests go straight from the app to your endpoint.

SHARE THE BEST GAMES
Record matches as video and export a full match report as a PDF.
