About WhoLeads.AI

What is this?

WhoLeads.AI tracks the performance of large language models over time. While leaderboards like LMArena show you today's rankings, we track how those rankings change — helping you understand the trajectory of AI progress.

See which models are rising, which are falling, and how long each company has held the #1 spot. As new models enter the arena, older models often drift downward in the rankings — even if they haven't changed at all. We capture that story.

Data Sources

All data displayed on this site comes from publicly available sources:

  • Elo Scores: Sourced from LMArena.ai (formerly LMSYS Chatbot Arena)
  • Release Dates: Official announcements from model providers
  • Model Information: Public documentation and press releases

We do not create or influence any benchmark scores. We simply aggregate and visualize publicly available data.

Methodology

Elo Rating System: LMArena uses an Elo-based rating system where models compete head-to-head based on human preferences. When users vote for which response they prefer, the winning model gains points and the losing model loses points.

Why scores drift: Elo is a relative measure. When a new, better model enters the arena and beats existing models, those existing models lose Elo points — even if they haven't changed at all. This is why tracking scores over time reveals the pace of AI progress.

Data collection: We collect leaderboard snapshots daily to track how each model's ranking evolves over time.
