Structured insights for the AI industry
We turn how creators, builders, and operators actually use AI into structured intelligence — used by AI companies to understand their customers and competitors, and by buyers to choose the right tool.
For AI companies & platforms
Decision-grade competitive benchmarking for AI companies.
Independent intelligence on what buyers in your category optimize for — and how you perform against the competitive set.
Customer KPC mapping
The criteria driving buyer decisions, weighted from observed usage — not stated preference.
Competitive benchmarking
Head-to-head performance against your set, scored under identical, transparent conditions.
Strength & weakness diagnostics
Dimension-level analysis: where you win, where you lose, where the gap is closing.
Longitudinal trend signal
Release-over-release tracking of position, performance, and perception.

Where signal comes from
Events & hackathons
Hackathons and elite tech events are one of the richest sources of structured signal — builders putting real AI tools through real workloads, side by side. Vibedex runs custom feedback engines for these events and folds the insights into the panel.
Previously handled feedback for events including the Manus AI Hackathon.
Running an event? Plug it into the network.
Beautiful, high-conversion feedback portals for hackathons, workshops, and product launches. You get rich attendee feedback; the network gets structured signal on how real builders use the tools.
