AI Judging Process

Prompt Adherence

How accurately the SVG captures the essence of the prompt.

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.
