The three
- Arena (arena.ai): every frontier model, one chat box, free
- Magnific, formerly Freepik (magnific.com): Kling, Sora and Seedance in one generator
- Google AI Studio (aistudio.google.com): Nano Banana image generation
1. Arena, at arena.ai
This is the one that replaces a stack of chat subscriptions. It used to live at lmarena.ai and now redirects to arena.ai. You pick a model and talk to it, or put two side by side and compare the same prompt.
Read off the live leaderboard on 12 August 2026: 391 models ranked by 7,779,985 human votes.
- Every model the video names is on it: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek, plus Qwen, Llama, Kimi and Mistral
- Four modes: Battle (two anonymous models fight), Side by Side (two you choose), Direct (one at a time), Agent
- No card, no trial. You can browse and use it without signing up
Why it is actually free: you are the judge. Your votes are what produce the leaderboard, so the free usage is the product, not a loss leader
