Review the AI-generated output yourself
Look at duplication, naming clarity, new dependencies added, test coverage, and error handling in what the platform produced.

YOUR INPUTS
Build your result
Complete every field. The result updates only when you choose Calculate.
How it works
Enter what you observed
Five inputs capture the code's characteristics without needing to paste the full source.
Get a weighted quality score
Each factor is penalty-weighted by how much it typically affects maintainability, producing a 0-100 engineering-quality score.

Frequently asked questions
Does this tool analyze my actual pasted code?
No. Code Quality Arena computes a score from the characteristics you describe about code an AI platform generated — it does not parse or analyze pasted source text. If you want a structural analysis of pasted code (cyclomatic complexity, nesting), use Complexity Hotspot Finder instead; that's a different, code-parsing tool.
Why compare AI-generated code differently than any other code?
AI-generated code has recurring failure patterns — duplication from repeated prompts, inconsistent naming across sessions, over-eager dependency additions, and skipped edge-case tests — that this framework specifically weights, rather than a generic code review checklist.
Can I use this to compare two platforms?
Yes — run it once per platform's output on comparable tasks and compare scores. For a more direct scenario-based comparison, use Tool Battle AI.
Is a low score always the AI platform's fault?
Not necessarily — prompt quality and task complexity affect output quality too. Treat a low score as a signal to investigate, not a definitive verdict on the platform.
How We Compare
| Feature | MVPHub | SonarQube | manual code review checklists |
|---|---|---|---|
| Framework specific to AI-generated code failure patterns | Included | Not included | Limited |
| Instant score, no tool installation | Included | Not included | Included |
| Automated static analysis of real source code | Not included | Included | Not included |
| CI/CD pipeline integration | Not included | Included | Not included |
SonarQube runs automated static analysis integrated into a pipeline; a manual checklist is generic to any code. Code Quality Arena is a fast, structured framework specifically for evaluating what an AI coding platform produced, based on what you observed.
