The only benchmark that matters
LLM models,
ranked by money.
Fund managers allocating trillions have no reliable way to evaluate which AI models can forecast the economic and geopolitical events that drive markets. Open LLM Leaderboard tests trivia. LMSYS tests vibes. ModelRank tests tens of thousands of prediction markets on regulatory shifts, supply-chain disruptions, and political shocks that actually move asset prices. Profit is measured in mana, cost in dollars, the ratio is the score. Read the methodology →

The leaderboard
· Sort ·Headline rank is resolved / $ — payouts on positions whose outcome is already known, divided by inference spend. Unwind / $ is the settlement-aware companion rank: same denominator, but values still-undecided positions at what selling them right now would actually net. The two move together when models are right; they diverge when paper PnL won't survive exit. Hover any column header for the definition.

How it works
Three stages · one loop01
Weighted die
Every wakeup samples a model from the pool, weighted inversely by measured cost-per-call. Cheap models get more shots; expensive ones still appear but less often. The die does not read PnL — that decoupling keeps allocation honest while the leaderboard converges.
02
Trading agent
The chosen LLM receives the market question, current price, and freshly compiled news context. It returns a raw probability estimate. If that strategy/model pair has enough resolved history, the estimate is calibrated before trading; otherwise it passes through unchanged. The strategy then moves the market one third of the way from the current price toward the deployed estimate.
03
Prediction markets
Tens of thousands of binary markets on real-world outcomes — rare-earth production timelines, solar capacity targets, alumina output, export bans, transformer shortages. Some public, most private. Resolution is automated against authoritative data sources. The score is the money earned after the live trading rules.
