Lab Tycoon: AI Startup Sim
Build an AI lab from a garage, train models, hire researchers, and chase funding rounds.
Run a scrappy AI lab from a garage to the frontier. Train models on questionable data, ship them before they are ready, and beg investors for GPUs with a straight face.
Lab Tycoon is an idle tycoon game about the AI industry. Pick an architecture, slide your compute between training and serving, and watch your big demo go sideways in front of the one investor who mattered. Raise absurd funding rounds. Poach researchers. Wake up to a rival lab open-sourcing your entire business overnight.
