Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built this because my cofounders and I were endlessly debating who the actual GOAT founder is. Instead of leaving it to endless Twitter/X threads, I wanted to turn it into a fast, addictive, Facemash-style arena. 100+ legendary tech founders go head-to-head, and every 1v1 vote feeds an Elo rating system to dynamically rank the ultimate startup leaderboard. Give it a spin, drop your hottest takes below, and let me know: who is your #1 founder? Would love to hear your feedback!

What did GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra and Luna unlock that made your launch possible?

The launch was almost entirely made possible by using GPT-5.6 Sol inside Codex to build both the frontend and backend end-to-end: Backend Logic & Elo Engine: We used Sol inside Codex to architect the real-time Elo rating system, handle dynamic database schema migrations, and build intelligent matchup algorithms that pair founders based on historical metrics and founder archetypes rather than just random selection. + Frontend UI & Fast Micro-Interactions: Sol generated the entire client-side interface, optimizing for sub-millisecond state updates and snappy micro-animations so every 1v1 matchup feels as fast and responsive as a native swipe-app.
