Getting Started

Quickstart Guide

Run your first blind model comparison in under 5 minutes.

1Create an account

Sign up for a free account at compare-hub.com. No credit card required. You'll get free credits to run your first comparisons.

💡 Tip: You can also use your own OpenRouter or provider API keys to avoid using platform credits. See API Keys.

2Pick a task or paste your prompt

Choose from pre-built task templates (chat, summarization, code generation, etc.) or paste your own prompt. You can use variables like {{topic}} to make prompts reusable.

System: You are a helpful assistant.

User: Explain {{topic}} in simple terms.

3Select models to compare

Choose 2 or more models from our library. By default, model names are hidden (blind mode) to prevent brand bias. You can reveal them anytime.

  • Models are labeled as A, B, C, etc. until you reveal them
  • Compare up to 30 models in a single run
  • See real-time cost and latency for each model

4Run comparison & review results

Click "Run comparison" and wait for models to respond. An ensemble of judges will evaluate the outputs based on criteria like correctness, clarity, and efficiency.

You'll see:

  • Scores - Judge ratings with visible rationales
  • Agreement - How often judges picked the same winner
  • Cost & Speed - € per run and latency in milliseconds
  • Permalink - Shareable URL with pinned versions
