Judge & Evaluator

The winner of this SVG challenge is Claude 3.7 Sonnet Thinking (2025-02-19) Player 1

Judge's Analysis

Player 1's image captures the whimsical theme of a rainbow-colored snail playing a saxophone with vibrant colors and imaginative elements.

The snail is clearly depicted with musical notes, adding to the playful concept.

In contrast, Player 2's image lacks clarity and detail, making it difficult to interpret the intended subject matter.

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.

AI Judging Process

Creativity

Originality, innovative use of shapes and unique approach to the prompt.

Prompt Adherence

How accurately the SVG captures the essence of the prompt.

Visual Appeal

Aesthetic quality including composition, color usage and overall visual impact.

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.
