## What is MineBench?

Turn your ideas into 3D builds with AI, then step inside them!

Describe a castle, a futuristic city, or something completely unexpected. MineBench includes free Gemini 3.8 Flash generations to help you get started, with no API key required for the included allowance.

GENERATE YOUR IDEAS
Turn a written prompt into a 3D creation. Save your builds and return to your favorites.

STEP INSIDE YOUR CREATIONS
Walk through builds or take flight with intuitive touch controls. Switch between day and night and adjust the atmosphere as you explore.

COMPARE WHAT AI CAN CREATE
See how different models interpret the same prompt. Compare builds, vote in the Arena, and discover which models build best.

BRING BUILDS INTO MINECRAFT
Open your saved creations on minebench.ai and export WorldEdit schematics for compatible Minecraft Java worlds.

DISCOVER AND SHARE
Browse community creations, find inspiration, publish your favorites to Gallery, and share builds as GIFs or videos.

## Frequently asked questions about MineBench

### What is MineBench used for?

MineBench is a live benchmark for AI spatial reasoning. It allows users to see how well AI models understand natural language prompts and construct 3D voxel worlds from precise coordinates. You can inspect, vote on, and compare these AI-generated builds.

### How does MineBench work?

Models receive a natural-language prompt and construct 3D voxel worlds. Users can then compare two builds side-by-side in the Arena, rotate, pan, and zoom each world, and vote on which one is better without seeing the model names. The results contribute to a public ranking.

### Can I use MineBench without an account?

Yes, you can browse the Gallery, vote in the Arena, compare benchmark builds, import a build, and view rankings without signing in. However, signing in with Apple or Google is required to generate, save, publish builds, and see your personal ranking.

### What kind of AI models does MineBench support?

MineBench supports various AI models through providers like OpenRouter or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Saved provider keys are stored securely in your iPhone's Keychain and are never attached to your MineBench account.

### How is the MineBench leaderboard determined?

The leaderboard tracks live rankings, confidence, consistency, prompt-level performance, head-to-head records, and detailed results from leading AI labs. It is built from over 400,000 votes across 60+ models.

### Can I share my AI-generated builds?

Yes, you can save generated builds to your account, publish favorites to the Gallery, download build files, and export polished GIF or MP4 turntables for sharing with others.

### Is MineBench open source?

Yes, MineBench is open source and has earned over 300 GitHub stars. The project is supported by prominent AI organizations including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Z.ai, and Moonshot AI.
