Step 1 of 4

Sign Up & Browse

Sign up with your email or connect a wallet, then browse open Argyus or create your own topic for others to debate.

💡 Each Argyu has a topic, a time limit, and two sides to argue. No real money required.
Step 2 of 4

Write Your Argument

Pick a side and craft your best argument for or against the topic, then submit it.

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.

Step 3 of 4

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?
Step 4 of 4
