RogueRunStats: Speedrun Leaderboard Validator
AI-powered video verification system that auto-validates roguelike speedrun submissions and detects common cheating methods (emulator abuse, splicing, TAS overlays) for community leaderboards.
The Problem
Speedrun communities managing roguelike leaderboards (Hades, Luck be a Landlord, Slay the Spire mods) spend hours manually reviewing video submissions to catch cheaters. Moderators lack standardized tools to detect frame splicing, emulator-specific exploits, or tool-assisted gameplay overlays, leading to invalid runs staying on leaderboards and community trust erosion.
Target Audience
Speedrun community moderators and leaderboard admins for roguelikes and procedurally-generated games (Discord communities, Speedrun.com curators, Twitch streamers managing their own competitions).
Why Now?
Claude's Vision API now makes frame-by-frame video analysis accessible to indie builders; the roguelike game boom (Hades 2, newer deck-builders) is growing speedrun communities faster than moderation tools can scale.
What's Missing
Speedrun verification is too niche for mainstream video moderation tools (which target content platforms), but too technical for manual-only communities. No affordable SaaS exists bridging this gap.
