AI Company Tycoon

Found an AI startup in 2016 with $1.5M in the bank. Research breakthroughs, buy data, train models, ship products – and race 18 rival labs to the frontier of artificial intelligence.

AI Company Tycoon is a business simulation of the AI industry, built on how the real one works. Every research item, dataset, hardware generation and product in the game is based on real technology, explained in plain language as you play.

🔬 RESEARCH THE HISTORY OF AI
Advance through six eras – from the Perceptron of the 1950s through deep learning, transformers and generative AI to frontier reasoning models. 76 technologies, each with a plain-language explanation of the real concept behind it.

📚 DATA BEFORE MODELS
Buy and curate datasets: web crawls, licensed books, code repositories, human preference data. Clean them, keep them fresh, mind the copyright. Models trained on poor data come out weak – exactly like in real life.

🧠 TRAIN AND IMPROVE YOUR MODELS
Pick the architecture size, feed it your data and reserve GPU time. Then keep your flagship sharp: fine-tune it, align it with human feedback, add retrieval (RAG), quantize it for cheap serving, or distill a fast Mini for consumer products.

📦 MODELS DON'T EARN – PRODUCTS DO
Launch chatbots, developer APIs, coding assistants, enterprise knowledge tools and autonomous agent platforms. Grow users, buy upgrades, run marketing, and watch your margins: every free user burns real GPU money.

🖥️ THE COMPUTE RACE
From gaming GPUs under a desk to warehouse-scale superpods. Serve your users, reserve capacity for training runs, and don't let overload tank your reliability.

🌍 BEAT 18 RIVAL LABS
Fictional competitors ship stronger models every year. If they outclass you, your users drift away and prices erode. Climb the model rankings, manage hype, trust and reputation, and take the #1 spot.

💰 SURVIVE THE BURN
Salaries, hardware upkeep and inference bills eat cash every week. Watch your runway, bridge hard times with loans, and repay them before the interest eats you.

📖 LEARN WHILE YOU PLAY
The in-game Codex explains every concept you unlock – hype vs. utility, open vs. closed models, burn rate, data quality, mixture of experts – in plain language, no math required.

🗣️ PLAY IN YOUR LANGUAGE
English, Arabic, Portuguese (Brazil), German, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, Russian, Turkish, Ukrainian and Italian. Everything is translated – the research tree, the Codex, the weekly news, all of it.

✨ FREE, NO ADS
No ads, no tracking, and nothing that has to be paid for. Your progress is saved automatically on your device and the game works fully offline. If you enjoy it, the Support screen lets you leave an optional tip through Google Play – it unlocks nothing in the game.

One turn = one week. How far will your lab get by the frontier era?
