GPT-4o
Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O4-mini medium (2025-04-16) Player 1

Judge's Analysis

    Player 1's submission is more aligned with the prompt, showcasing a clearly identifiable tree growing out of an open book and forming letters with its branches.

    The composition effectively integrates the concept, with the tree and book being visually distinct and cohesive.

    Player 2's submission is less clear in its representation of the prompt, with the elements being more abstract and harder to interpret as a tree or letters in the sky.

These metrics analyze technical aspects of both SVG drawings. Look for differences that might explain the judge's decision. Use the "View Code" button above to see the SVG code for each drawing.

How does judging work?

SVG drawings are converted to static PNG images for evaluation. The AI judge receives the original prompt and both images, then determines which drawing better fulfills the evaluation criteria without seeing animations, interactivity, or SVG code.
