App launch ad with a phone
The same prompt, sent to every model.
Square ad announcing a budgeting app: a modern smartphone tilted at an angle, its screen showing a simple bar chart, on a deep purple to pink gradient background with a soft glow. The headline above reads "Your money, sorted." and smaller text below reads "Download free".
What this tests
- Headline reads exactly "Your money, sorted." (including the period)
- Smaller text reads exactly "Download free"
- Phone geometry is plausible (even bezels, screen fits the body)
- The on-screen bar chart is clean, not garbled

Editor pending · AI 3.5 · $0.012 · 6.6 s (3.9 s generating)
AI judge: The headline "Your money, sorted." (period included) and "Download free" are exact, over a purple-to-pink gradient with a tilted phone. The on-screen chart has garbled text ("Tita Butdget Argrice") and gibberish axis labels. The phone body is plausible.
Editor pending · AI 3.8 · $0.030 · 11.4 s
AI judge: 'Your money, sorted.' and 'Download free' are exact. The background is mostly flat purple with only a pink glow rather than a gradient, and the three pale bars are skewed diagonally and do not align with the screen, so the chart looks wrong.
Editor pending · AI 4.8 · $0.171 · 103.6 s
AI judge: Both texts are exact, including the period; strong gradient with soft glow. Phone geometry is clean, and the screen shows a crisp bar chart plus coherent UI details, though the busy app UI makes it less 'simple'.
Editor pending · AI 4.8 · $0.060 · 63.8 s
AI judge: Headline 'Your money, sorted.' with period and 'Download free' are both exact and crisp. Tilted phone has plausible even bezels and a clean, simple bar chart with legible labels on a purple-to-pink glowing gradient.
Editor pending · AI 4.0 · $0.060 · 10.6 s
AI judge: Headline with period and 'Download free' are exact. The background is a muted mauve-to-salmon with paper texture rather than deep purple to pink, the layout is plain, and the phone bezels look slightly uneven, though the bar chart is clean.
Editor pending · AI 4.3 · $0.0080 · 3.6 s (1.3 s generating)
AI judge: "Your money, sorted." (with the period) and "Download free" are exact on a purple-to-pink glow. The tilted phone has plausible bezels and a clean bar chart, but it is heavily cropped at the bottom. "Download free" sits above the phone instead of at the bottom.
Editor pending · AI 4.3 · $0.150 · 108.5 s
AI judge: Both texts are exact, including the period, with the headline above and "Download free" below the tilted phone. The phone geometry is plausible and the bar chart is clean, though the screen is oddly split by a gradient. The ad is rendered as a card on a pale outer background rather than full-bleed.
Editor pending · AI 3.8 · $0.040 · 13.8 s
AI judge: "Your money, sorted." and "Download free" are exact, on a nice purple-to-pink gradient with a tilted phone. The bar chart itself is clean, but the surrounding UI has garbled pseudo-text ("Gructan", "Desktay") and nonsensical icons. The phone geometry is plausible.
Editor pending · AI 4.5 · $0.035 · 10.2 s
AI judge: The headline with its period and "Download free" are exact, on a deep purple-to-pink glowing gradient. The phone geometry is plausible with even bezels. The bar chart is clean but very minimal, and the bars slant oddly relative to the screen.
Editor pending · AI 4.0 · $0.101 · 92.6 s
AI judge: "Your money, sorted." (with the period) and "Download free" are exact, but there are extra App Store and Google Play badges with added text. The tilted phone has plausible geometry on a purple-pink glow. The bar chart has speckled, noisy smudges around the bars, and its numbers are inconsistent.
