AI Video Arena is a research-style leaderboard that ranks AI video models using blind pairwise votes rather than editorial opinion. The premise is simple: show people two clips from the same prompt, hide the model names, and let aggregate preference — fitted with a proper statistical model and honest uncertainty intervals — produce the ranking. The full procedure is on the methodology page; the data behind every page is downloadable from the data page.

Voting has not opened, and until it does this site publishes no ratings at all. What it publishes instead is a catalogue of current AI video models in which every fact is transcribed from the vendor's own page, cited on the page that shows it and dated. Where a vendor does not state something, the table says Not stated.

A small in-house team maintains the data pipeline, the statistical methodology and the editorial text.

AI Video Arena is an independent publication. A small in-house team maintains the data pipeline, the statistical methodology and the editorial text; corrections and vendor disputes are welcome via the contact page.

How links are marked. Links to aicontentdrop.com are plain citations like every other outbound link — vendor documentation, the arena.ai (LMArena) reference, the Artificial Analysis leaderboard.

Ranking independence. Leaderboard positions will be computed from votes by the published methodology, and the build system refuses to produce a leaderboard in which any model sits below the minimum-vote threshold or is exempted from any quality filter. If an AIContentDrop model enters the arena it will be fitted by exactly the same math as every competitor: no vote-weighting, no threshold exemption, no editorial rank. If the data says our model loses, the leaderboard says so. The snapshot data behind every page is publicly downloadable so the computation is independently checkable.

Corrections from readers and vendors are welcomed on the corrections page and are applied with a visible audit trail.
