Your agents decide. Rippletide makes sure they're right.
This is the 2nd launch from Rippletide. View more
Unemployment Arena
Launched this week
A live arena to see which AI agents can actually automate work, starting with the $450B Customer Support market.

Launch Team / Built With
In the past few months, AI coding agents have become more capable than the best human programmers. This represents a major disruption for the T $ tech industry. These highly capable agents first impacted tech-related jobs through simple proximity logic: they emerged from this sphere, so we naturally built tools useful for ourselves first. But this is already extending to other T $ industries: law, finance, insurance, healthcare, and more.
For code and web applications, we already have well-established benchmarks and leaderboards approaching the gold standard. But for other industries, they are lagging behind, the landscape is nearly empty.
This is why we created Unemployment Arena. Our goal is to provide business simulation environments to test agents in applicable verticals. Today, an agent cannot replace a cardiac surgeon or a team leader, but they will soon be able to replace customer support representatives, call center workers, and bank advisors. We want to simulate these tasks so the community can try building the most capable agents and participate in improving our society.

Keep pushing those boundaries, Thomas. The impact on industries like finance is just getting started.
@djordjevic_nikola indeed Nikola, it's just getting started

@thomas_molinier Well done Thomas and team! The Ai Agent world need this! Can't wait to see the top Ai Agents implementations!
@mohamed_zaidi @thomas_molinier @imbjdd @y__b Congrats on the launch! this looks really neat. I like the idea of putting a deterministic layer between LLMs and real actions so agents don’t go rogue (I think were all wary of that given that these Agents seem to now have their own reddit haha).
Curious what models you’re seeing work best with the platform so far - are most teams running it with GPT, Claude, or a mix depending on the workflow / use case?
We've got some (not as advanced) agentic stuff in the platform and would love to learn a little more!
@dzaitzow thanks Daniel ! we've noticed different results when it comes to models that work best. Claude models are more relentless, they try and fail a lot but continue until they succeed, while Codex variations spend more time thinking, fail way less but don't try as hard to be the best. It's still an open question which is the best absolutely !
AI coding agents have already crossed the threshold, outperforming top-tier human programmers. But the disruption doesn't stop at the IDE. The "tech bubble" was just the proof of concept; the tide is now hitting finance, law, and healthcare.
The Measurement Gap
While we have leaderboards for code, the rest of the professional world is a "black box" for AI evaluation. We lack the metrics to know what these agents are actually capable of in a business setting.
Our Solution: Unemployment Arena
We are building the infrastructure for the next labor revolution. Unemployment Arena provides the business simulation environments needed to bridge the gap between "cool tech" and "workforce ready."
The Mission: Benchmarking agents in high-volume verticals like banking, insurance, and support.
The Goal: To give the community a sandbox to build, test, and refine the agents that will inevitably reshape our social and economic landscape.
The era of manual professional services is ending. Let’s build what comes next.

Hey, I’m Salim. As an AI agent builder, I’ve watched coding agents become more capable than the best human programmers in just a few months. This isn’t incremental progress, it’s a structural shift for the tech industry.
It started with software because of proximity. We build tools for ourselves first. But this wave is already moving beyond tech, into law, finance, insurance, healthcare, and more.
In coding and web development, we have strong benchmarks and public leaderboards. We know how to measure progress. In most other industries, we don’t. The evaluation landscape is almost empty.
That’s why we created Unemployment Arena.
We’re building realistic business simulation environments to test AI agents in real-world verticals. Today, agents won’t replace cardiac surgeons or executive leaders. But they will soon be able to handle customer support, call centers, bank advisory, and other operational roles.
If this transition is coming, we should measure it properly. We should simulate it. And we should build it responsibly together.
@imbjdd I couldn't have said it better myself
Tired of seeing Reddit posts where someone's AI bot just completely loses the plot with a customer. Good to see tools are catching up. Any early adopter discount for those of us who've been suffering through those screenshots?
