ChatGPT Judgements
Our AI analysis goes beyond basic moderation—it delivers clear scorecards, constructive guidance, and a fair playing field for all perspectives.
Debate Deciding
After each match, you get a neutral Who won? verdict based on argument quality, evidence, rhetorical skill, and logical consistency—not political leaning.
Each participant receives a clear Judgement Scorecard across multiple dimensions: Persuasiveness, Evidence Quality, Logical Coherence, Rhetorical Skill, and Audience Impact.
Winners earn Machine Spirits—collectible achievements that appear on your profile alongside other stats. We provide transparent criteria and summaries so calls make sense.
User Traits
ChatGPT builds a living profile of your debating style by analyzing your contributions across three dimensions:
- Personality: Happiness, Sadness, Hope, Anger, Curiosity, Empathy, Conciseness, Boldness, Logical Rigour, Humor, Diplomacy, Creativity, Confidence, Open-Mindedness
- Opinions: A summary of your positions on topics you've debated, helping others understand your perspective
- Knowledge: Subject areas where you demonstrate expertise and accuracy
Add custom traits to track, and discover debaters with similar, complementary, or competitive profiles to yours, perfect for finding intellectual sparring partners or allies.
How It Works
Our AI judgement system uses carefully crafted prompts designed for neutrality and fairness. We share the criteria and summaries used so you can understand the call.
