Build the Future of AI in Model Co.

From humble beginnings in a small startup office with just two hires and a limited supply of GPU-hours, you are ready to define the next era of technology. Model Co. is an immersive retro management simulation that challenges you to oversee the high-stakes world of an AI lab. Your mission is clear: train cutting-edge machine learning models, ship products that define industries, and outsmart rival labs in a volatile market where today’s technological breakthrough quickly becomes tomorrow’s legacy code.

Train Models That Dominate the Market

Success in this AI simulator relies on your ability to make calculated bets. You must carefully select your model architecture—ranging from language and image generation to advanced multimodal systems—and tailor them to specific product surfaces like chatbots, enterprise agents, or developer APIs. Balancing the scale of your training runs against your compute budget is essential. Discover powerful synergies to push your models ahead of the pack, but remain vigilant: the AI frontier is constantly shifting, and model decay means that resting on your laurels is the fastest way to become obsolete.

Build a World-Class AI Research Team

Your laboratory is only as good as the talent you acquire. Recruit elite research scientists, ML engineers, and data analysts through specialized agencies. Managing your staff is a nuanced challenge: foster their skills, develop unique traits, and keep morale high to prevent burnout. If you fail to invest in your team, predatory rival labs will not hesitate to headhunt your best researchers, leaving your active training runs stalled and your company vulnerable.

Ship Products and Master the Business Cycle

Running a successful AI lab requires more than just code; it requires financial discipline. Manage your monthly recurring revenue (MRR), mitigate user churn caused by newer releases, and stay on top of mounting inference costs. From running strategic ad campaigns and navigating bank loans to conducting an IPO and managing your share price through the fluctuations of the AI bubble, you must balance hype with fundamental business growth. If you miss payroll or fail to cover your server costs, your career as an AI founder will come to an abrupt end.
