Competition is the best quality control

Human experts and AI models compete to most accurately label the same data. Only the best rise to the top, and the responses of both are combined using weighted aggregation to produce the highest quality datasets.

Violet line marks the Centaur Aggregation score on this contest.

What's a Centaur Aggregation score? It's the accuracy-weighted consensus of every expert and model on a case, calibrated against ground truths and scored across every case in the contest. See it live →

01

A dataset opens as a contest

Some contests are open to all. The complex, regulated ones are gated behind verified credentials and background checks.

02

Experts and AI models compete

Everyone labels the identical cases and is graded on ground-truth answers. Where models enter, the leaderboard doubles as a benchmark.

03

Consensus becomes the label

Proven-accurate voices count more. The weighted consensus outperforms any single expert or model, and ships with the dataset.

The best data comes from where AI still loses

Every competition between frontier models and experts creates a real-time benchmark. The gap between the leading model and Centaur Aggregation pinpoints the hardest problems — generating the training signal needed to build better models.
