About
Idle AI Lab is an incremental game about growing a tiny research lab into an AI powerhouse, one tap, one agent, one model at a time.
Start by generating Compute by hand. Train your first agent and it earns for you. Gather Data, run training, and reveal your first model. Serve it to clients, unlock research, and push toward your first Breakthrough, which resets your lab with permanent bonuses so the next run goes further.
WHAT YOU DO • Train agents that earn Compute and Data, and give each type a job. • Buy upgrades that show exactly what they change before you spend. • Run training, reveal models, and deploy them to clients. • Research new capabilities and unlock the Company, hardware and the model Registry. • Publish a Breakthrough to reset with lasting advantages.
THE DATA PIPELINE A merge board inside the game: stations spawn pieces, matching pieces merge up, and everything feeds the Corpus, which levels up and pays you Data. Feed cravings, open crates, level up stations, spend Patents.
MADE FOR SHORT SESSIONS Your lab keeps producing while the app is closed (up to 8 hours; more with Night Shift). Come back, collect, decide, and go.
FAIR BY DESIGN • Free to play. Optional rewarded ads and purchases; nothing is gated behind them. • Your progress backs up to the cloud automatically. Link with Apple to carry it to another device. • Credits you earn or buy stay on your account through resets.
Numbers grow, systems unfold, and the next decision is always in view.
