Startup beef

Stop posting MRR. Fight.

Revenue screenshots prove nothing. Turn your site into a 3D fighter and settle it on the floor in AR — against their bot any time, or live against their founder. The board doesn't care about your MRR.

How it works

Four steps from a URL to a ranking

1

Type your site

We read your home page: a screenshot and your logo. They become the fighter's look and colors.

2

Prove it's yours

Put one tag on your home page or one TXT record in your DNS. Until then the fighter is on the board, but unconfirmed.

Meta tag or DNS
3

Pick a rival

Any startup on the board. Fight their bot right now, or create a beef and send the link to their founder.

Climb and post it

Rated wins move your place. Post the KO on X with both fighters on the card.

Step 1 · The fighter

Made from your site

No photo, no prompt. The screenshot and the logo of your home page go in; a rigged 3D fighter in your brand's colors comes out, with the same moves as every other fighter.

Step 2 · Confirm

Prove the domain is yours

The app gives you a token. Put it on your site one of two ways, tap Check, and we look for it in both places at once. Your coding agent can do it — the app hands it a ready prompt.

Meta tag

Easiest
<meta name="arbeef-verify" content="3870acd5a57c…">

In the <head> of your home page, in the HTML your server returns over https — not added later by JavaScript.

DNS record

Behind a bot check
TypeNameValueTXT@↓
arbeef-verify=3870acd5a57c…

On the domain itself — name @, not a subdomain — with the whole line as the value. DNS can take a few minutes.

Unconfirmed

  • Shown under «Not claimed yet», no place
  • Others can beat its bot; its rating is frozen at 900
  • Its own fights are just for fun — unrated

Confirmed

  • A place in the ranking, starting at 1000
  • Rated fights, live beefs with other founders
  • A daily push about your fights
  • Remake the fighter, hide the card
Step 3 · Fight

Two ways to beef

Open a rival's card and tap Challenge. Every fight happens in AR on your floor, in the same arena as regular ARBeef fights.

Their bot

Any time
+16for a win between equal ratings

A bot fights for the rival on your phone. The higher they rank, the harder it hits.

Hardplaces 1–10
Mediumplaces 11–30
Easythe rest, unconfirmed
Their founder feels half: −8 for that loss. One rated bot fight per pair a day.

Live beef

×3 points
+48for a win between equal ratings

You against their founder, each on their own floor, over the internet. Both startups must be confirmed.

Create beef → a link → you send it → they open it and fight you.

Both sides win or lose the full amount. Up to 3 rated live beefs per pair a day.
Points

What a fight is worth

Elo: beating someone above you pays more, losing to someone below costs more. A few examples for the side that started the fight.

Limits

One rated bot fight per pair a day, three live ones in a challenge room, 20 rated fights per player a day. The rest still play, unrated.

Fair live results

Both phones report the winner. A live beef counts only when the two reports agree.

Ownership stays checked

We look for your tag again before rated fights. Take it down and the startup goes unconfirmed, its rating frozen.

Live beef

How an invite works

There's no «online» list and no spam: you send the link yourself, and a beef waits up to 7 days.

You

Create beef

On the rival's screen: one room per pair, the link is copied.

You

Send it

To their founder, in X DMs, email, Slack — wherever you reach them. The preview shows both fighters.

Their founder

Opens it

The link opens the app. They also find it in «Your beefs», with a badge. Only the two owners can get in.

Both

Fight live

You get a push when they're in the room. After the first counted fight the room closes; a rematch is a new beef.

Notifications

Who gets a push

Only founders of confirmed startups, and only about their own startup.

Confirmed startups by rating. Unconfirmed ones sit below, sorted by how often they get beaten.

Questions

The fine print

Someone made a fighter of my startup. Is it mine now?

Anyone can make the fighter for a domain, once. Whoever confirms the domain owns it from then on — including a fighter someone else paid for. You can remake it your way.

Can I fight without confirming?

Yes: against any bot, just for fun. Nothing you do moves a rating until your startup is confirmed.

What if the founder never answers?

The beef waits up to 7 days, then expires. Their bot is always there to fight in the meantime.

Can I take my startup off the board?

Yes: hide the card from the app. Your fighter stays on your phone for regular fights.

Someone is using my brand.

Tap Report on the card. We review it and take it down.
