How Khaos Live works
Every feature, every belt, every payout — explained step by step. From your first profile to your first viral clip.
- Step 01
Create your profile
Sign up with email or Google, pick a username, drop an avatar, and write a one-line bio that tells people what you'll fight about.
- Sign up at /signup with email or Google
- Choose a unique @username — this becomes khaoslive.com/u/yourname
- Add an avatar, bio, and the topics you care about
- Pick your starting belt — every account begins unranked
- Step 02
Get verified
The blue flame means a real person with real reach. Apply once you've shipped a few debates and built a following.
- Have a complete profile (avatar, bio, ≥3 finished debates)
- Be active for at least 14 days with no policy strikes
- Confirm identity via Google, phone, or a connected social
- Apply from Settings → Verification — review takes 3–5 days
- Step 03
Start or join a debate
Host a live room, challenge a creator, or accept an open call. Pick a topic, set a side, and bring the heat.
- Tap '+ New debate' to host or '/challenges' to call someone out
- Choose 1v1, 2v2, or open-mic format
- Lock the topic, side (For / Against), and time limit
- Audience joins live, reacts in real time, and votes 'Who won?'
- Step 04
Live AI judging
Khaos AI scores arguments as they happen — substance, clarity, evidence, and rebuttal quality — and shows you why.
- Real-time scorecard updates every 30 seconds
- Per-round breakdown: logic, sourcing, delivery, comebacks
- Transparent reasoning — tap any score to see the why
- Appeal any decision from the debate page
- Step 05
