Step 1 of 4

Create or Join an Argyu

Browse open Argyus and pick one that interests you, or create your own topic for others to debate.

💡 Each Argyu has a buy-in, time limit, and topic to argue for or against.
Step 2 of 4

Write Your Argument

Craft your best argument for or against the topic. Pay the buy-in fee in SOL to submit.

Strong arguments typically:

  • State a clear position on the question
  • Provide evidence and reasoning to support your claim
  • Anticipate and address counterarguments
  • Are well-organized and easy to follow

Pro tip: Quality beats quantity. A focused, well-reasoned argument often wins over a lengthy rambling one.

AI Picks the Winner

When time runs out, our AI evaluates all arguments and ranks them based on logic, evidence, and persuasiveness.

Our AI judge evaluates arguments on:

  • Logical soundness - Is the reasoning valid?
  • Evidence quality - Are claims supported?
  • Relevance - Does it address the question directly?
  • Persuasiveness - How compelling is the overall argument?
